 I'm a bit torn here on the AN/I I just filed about ‎MBisanz blocking Nenpog. On one hand, I think Nenpog is not doing himself any favors, and I am reluctant to have hope at this point that he will return to being a positive and helpful contributor. But on the other hand, I am a firm believer in doing things in a way that is fair and even-handed, even when the person we are dealing with seems unlikely to reform. I think when you give respect, you are more likely to get it. Nenpog assured the crowd that he was going to accept the ruling of the community for his topic ban, but made no pretense that he was also going to exhaust his appeal process. SO, do we consider a single appeal out of line and inappropriate? Even if the rest of us believe he's wrong, do we say, no, you can't appeal because we say so? Like I said.... not sure what to think on this because I don't want to waste time on a debate that won't have a good outcome, but I don't like people acting out of line with process and a thoughtful consideration of our guidelines here. Any thoughts...?
