SpPanda wants back in. Should we let him?

[Jace Tsunami]

Well that was an agressive way of showing your opinion jace. You could've at least worded that more politely.

Yeah, I'm a real jack ass. I can't help it, I just don't care anymore. I do have honesty going for me tho. That post was very literal, and if i was really mad or had something bad or terrible to say, you can bet I would have said it =/

So having not said anything worse than I did say, you know what you just saw was as bad as it's going to get.

Hey,

Thing is, out of the 95,000+ registered members, I have to base a judgement on the response of 0.136% of the known population. Of those, 0.064% said for him to be allowed to return, thus making them happy. The real question is: If SpPanda is allowed back in, will he cause more people to be happy or more people to be unhappy?

When he spammed the forums, there were certainly more than 61 people unhappy with him. Is that likely to happen again? Is sacrificing the reletive increase of happiness of the people who want him back worth the saving of the potential unhappiness of others?

Right now, I am watching reaction. So far, whenever SpPanda is mentioned or discussed, I am getting a sense of unhappiness over happiness. Is this sense actually correct? I am still deciding. But reactions such as Jace Tsunami certainly do not bring a positive sense to SpPanda's reputation.

Hmmm...

Phade.

Your making me unhappy Phade, I'm gonna get you banned, your ass is mine now!

FOR GOD SAKES JUST GIVE ME MY PIE ALREADY

Is this sense actually correct? I am still deciding. But reactions such as Jace Tsunami certainly do not bring a positive sense to SpPanda's reputation.

Phade.

my post was just angsty and disgrunted because I liked SpPanda, and everyone that wants him back is fighting pretty hard to persuade you, yet no matter what we seem to say, it doesn't look like it matters.

That's why my post had such a negative aura.

Even tho I voted for pie, I say let him back.

And as for my further opinion on this thread, it does seem you're being more than a little biast. It's like a negative post is 3 times stronger than a positive one.

i joined after sp was banned (i assume, at least) but here's my .02


its a person, so you shouldn't be handling it as a matter of numbers

how happy are you when you go the bank and instead of saying "hey [phade], what can i do for you today?" they say (very monotone) "Hello. Member number please."


what you really need to look at is give him a little week long test period or something, if he behaves himself in that time extend it...if not then he can't come back

i doubt anything he could do in a week would be bad enough to have anybody quit the .org, especially on the forums..

[Jace Tsunami]

YES! prohbation is an excellent idea

Phade:
If only half the population chose to vote in an election, we would have to go off that vote. A good percentage of people choose not to vote just for the purpose that they dont want to. You cant say that because only a small few have voted, it shouldnt count or doesnt matter. Also, watch One Flew Over the CooCoos Nest. Watch the TV part. It is the EXACT same deal. Don't be the nurse Ratchet in this situation. Be the cool Indian dude that does the cool stuff (trying to to spoil the movie).
Another rant by me:
Yes, SpPanda has said and done some pretty loud things. Well, you all think they are loud anyways (nothing he ever said bugged me in the least). Though I think it is worth noting that we ALL have said and done done some rather harsh, irrational things lately (SIGNAL TO NOISE, lots of hacking posts and pirating posts lately, FLAME WARS LIKE NONE BEFORE). SpPanda may actually be the sane happiness with the cooky attitude we have been lacking. Everyone is very extreme in attitude around here. It's either ABORT BABIES or I'LL KILL YOU FOR WANTING TO KILL LIFE (not category specific, but you realize the extreme viewpoints). SpPanda is very mild in this sort of way. He doesnt let himself get carried away, and is always able to explain himself. He is like anyone else here (nicer in MOST ways). I can't at all understand why he was banned anymore, especially with how people have been acting lately. I used to tease people here because I thought they were mostly naive fan boys. I now hate more than half of you because you are just a bunch of pissed off little kids. At least people like SpPanda don't go around trying to drag everyone down. He tries to lighten things up. The funniest, the rudest, the SLUTTIEST, the smartest, and even the calmest of us don't even attempt that anymore. He does. I speak to him on AIM time to time, and he is always there to try and put anyone in a good mood. And going down to essentials: HE MAKES AMVs! And pretty good ones (or so I hear, I never had downloaded them. I tend to reject Nu Metal and soft stuff). He could be a very helpful and valuable member if let back in. And I am almost POSITIVE he wouldnt mind being productive. If I could help people, I would, and have even tried several times. I am none too seasoned though. He is. I am going to stop this rant here, but c'mon guys. Give the dude a chance. He has been banned longer than ME and I posted a pic of a Bat with a huge cock and balls and sent Phade pics of a baby takking a liquid shit! You cant possibly think that SpPanda is worse than that.

this is why bear is driving

Azn, please. Let's try to keep this at least semi-serious.

I'd say let Panda back. He seemed to behave himself last time around. I suspect he's a far more humble individual now, less prone to trouble.
