    I wanna know why blazer fanatic was banned. I know they liked to stir the pot on the ESPN forums and guess I could see where there is potential for them to push the boundaries. However I never actually saw them do anything ridiculous. They seemed like as passionate a fan as anyone tbh.

    I don't usually get into this type of argument on here, but...

    Rabble rabble rabble. You can't say you banned instead of suspending someone because people have shown not to learn from suspensions. Just because person a doesn't learn doesn't mean person b will react the same to a suspension.

    Scottish empiricist philosopher David Hume on the theory of causation believes that no matter how many times we experience something, we can't actually know what will happen next. But rather we come to expect it. You don't know that this person would have come back and fought again after a suspension, but you expected it based off previous experiences. I feel that it was a mistake to do so.

    It's probably water under the bridge at this point with regards to this specific person.
    Just something to think about.

    Well, it has been everyone who was suspended eventually got banned after coming back and doing the same behavior. Not like it's one person.

    If anyone ever deserved banishment it was Blazer Fanatic. I liked her/him on a personal level. Unfortunately she/he was genetically incapable of having a civil conversation without flaming and insulting whoever dared utter a thought she didn't like.

    Mixum was easy to ignore but also earned his fate.

    They should stay buried.

    i never had a problem with him.

    he did have a skill for pissing a lot of you off though, but tbh most people walked into the traps with open eyes.

    he just made me laugh :) he was relentless in his crusade and i kinda admire that in an odd way
