###Discussion relating to this

Who here feels that perma-banning okok for asking:

is it possible to cut photos on the fly with js?

Was justified?

If you do not completely agree, what would you have done?

• Nothing
• Bin & Warn
• 30 minute mute
• Something else?

@simonsarris In theory ignoring works but in practice it has proven to be broken.

The reason for that is that while one or two might put him on ignore, some other users won't. The users ignoring him will see other users not ignoring him, react to his trolling and knowledge/energy sucking attempts.

We've tried that but it just doesn't work.

@honnza

He's been suspended at least four times by mods IIRC. The first two suspensions were for 24 hours, then one for two or so days (I could have been more, I'm not sure about this one) and the last one was for two weeks.

The above suspensions were just moderator issued suspensions, the amount of automatic offensive flag suspensions is probably higher than the mod suspensions. Those are one our to two hour suspensions.

I don't know how many more chances he should get.

Then we should probably crank up. If two weeks didn't change him, make it four or even higher. A manual reban once per month is low enough for us, and plenty of options for him to ask for forgiveness.

My initial concern still holds, however: lame questions are not neccessarily trolling, and if he's not actively trolling, we shouldn't treat him worse than other repeat vampires. Should we ban repeat vampires if they're as persistent as OKOK?
