This is an open letter asking you if you would reconsider re TB's recent 'departure'? There could be an alternative way.
As you know, TB is a highly valued poster on here. And has been since 1984. One of the too few remaining originals. And history, and links to history, are important, as you would know.
I also have reason to believe that TB does not frequent the Admin Forum, so may not even have been fully aware of his pre-existing two misdemeanours(?)
As you are aware Simon, several other long standing and valued posters (well, valued by by some
![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
So I was wondering if you could consider an alternative method to rein-in 'over exuberance' around here...?
Firstly starting with an amnesty. (Maybe think of it as incorporating something of the spirit of a 'reverse Yon Kippur', as that is approaching?)
Then, instead of permanent bans, maybe cumulative bans instead? (I.e.; First offence = 1 week holiday. Second = 2 weeks, and so on...)
And finally, a bit like the points system on our licenses, offences from a certain period ago are wiped?
Thanks for reading. And thanks for considering.
