[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 156087, member: 134"] I would rather a person leave on their own volition than be banned. Some people have dared the mods to ban them, which turns out to be an easy request to fill. If you don't want to be here, why stay? Just don't log on anymore, that simple. That way, when the situation has cooled down a bit, you can rejoin and resume as if nothing happened. I know I rarely stay mad at anyone in real life for longer than 30 minutes, as it is too much energy spent being pissed. With anonymous internet people, I don't get mad at all. There have been a few banned members who's acting out in the forum seems more like a cry for help. Some of these people I reached out to and tried to 'talk them down' so to speak. On occasion it works, on others not so much. There is only so much you can do for internet friends. I find it hard to believe that being banned from a site such as this could equate to hitting rock bottom, but based off of how much some people have been disturbed by such actions, you really feel sad for whatever else is going on in their life that this might have been their one refuge. Sometimes letting 'em hit the bottom though is the best thing you can do for them. [/QUOTE]
