Why do we ban?

[=Hellfire=]

I'm not a long -time member like many others posting here, but in my opinion, if somebody get's banned, it's for having been troublesome, damaging and prejudicial to the community as a whole.

As to the exact reason as to why they have been banned? Why does everyone care this much? They got banned for a reason often, if not always stated in the sanction notice and that's it. They overbent the bow and broke it.

Now, if you all would bring up as much energy and time to make this community a better place, trying to find solutions to our shrinking active player base instead of trying to get people back who have been proven harmful to the community's existence, we'd all benefit from it on the longer term.

Only my 2 cents here but think about it.

Since I'm part of disco, I've seen people get banned for a reason, get unbanned again, and then perma-banned because they did exactly the same crap they did to get banned the first time.
Are you guys so naive to think that everyone is able to change?
We have many examples, of those players who, despite the fact they got given a second chance, never grabbed it and reverted to their old ways pretty soon.

So why do admins ban? To help to keep this place clean and enjoyable for everyone.
