Bring back Nightman

We wouldn't normally comment on these things, but I'll make a couple of points.

The moderators around here don't ban people on a whim, you really have to work pretty hard to get perma-banned (or drop a nuclear post).
I happen to like Nightman but yep, there was more than enough reason (particularly in the shoutbox) to merit it.
There were plenty of second chances.

Alt-returning is a mighty 'fuck-you' to the forum, particularly as it says the poster has absolutely no respect for the temporary ban.

We're not looking for rule-abiding alts of rule-abiding posters.
The alts that the moderators particularly pay attention to are the alts of banned members.

Nightman is one of only 4 'celebrity' banned members (that we know of) who try to pop back in from time to time.
(one of whom made 16 alts in total - who knows, maybe they were successful or gave up after that)

So to the OP's question, yes we are serious and no it wasn't a minor breach.

And we'll be equally alert the next time we smell steak.

I understand your point, still, a permanent ban is too severe in my opinion.

Give the man a temp ban and a chance to apologize.
