After seeing the way some people treat other people, I think it would be great if we could form a group to decide if a ban is warranted. The administrators here are obvious members for such a team. In some cases, the person did something really wrong and didn't get banned. In other cases, someone did something wrong but minor and got immediately banned. As always, INtense is a fair judge of things and he has been known to re-instate people and to give them a second chance to prove themselves. I just think if we had a voting system of selected members, we could review and weigh each ban. It would be like any military court case. You'd have the prosecution (offended member), the defendant (offender), witnesses and evidence panels (members in same thread or witnesses of entire post in case of edited or deleted posts) and the presiding jury (admins and or select mebers of moddb). This would free up some time from the administrators, ensure that nobody was abusing their power and give memebrs a chance to participate in the overall wellness of their community. I am in no way saying that there is a problem with the current system. I was banned for doing something wrong and INtense was gracious enough to hear my case, review the facts and offer me a second chance. I was just thinking that it would be good for other members to get involved, understand the process and possibly appreciate all of the work the admins do on this site. It might also give people another perspective before going on a flame war. If you hate the idea, please don't flame me! Thanks!!! -- It's too funny that the earliest I can go for my birth year is 1971. I was born in 1967, I guess I'm too old for even the extreme edge of this envelope. Oh well.

Admins are there to *gasp* administrate. This includes banning, locking, etc. Thus, individual admins are each their own 'council' of 'ban judges'. If one admin votes, the entire council just did. --

There is no question or judgement when someone trolls for hours and retributing to continue that even after warnings from admins. Period. -- < insert subject games here >
