You're missing something. Notice that the Council did *not* agree to |
| 16 |
banning contributions from people, only possibly removing them from the |
| 17 |
discussion mediums due to their behavior. We are trying to fix people's |
| 18 |
behaviors, not remove them as possible contributors. For one, it would |
| 19 |
be very hard to accomplish and would require, in my opinion, too much |
| 20 |
work for the perceived benefit we would gain. |
