Wait.I never had a chance to vote on the process of ousting spicy or the number of chances they could receive. Who voted? Who was allowed to vote?
Spicy1 often defended me against horrible attacks.
And, she called out legitimately poor behavior that others would agree was deserving of condemnation too. I sometimes disagreed with how she went about it and wished for a more civil approach. But, if you look at what people did to me on this forum and seemingly never got punished for or warned by the moderators, then I don't think spicy should have been singled out either.
She didn't go looking for trouble against someone who was minding his or her own business. Rather, she responded to poor behavior most of the time.
If Spicy goes, I might go too (in protest). Just give her ONE more chance, at least.
People on this forum have done all sorts of poorly thought out things without ANY moderator punishment as far as I can tell.
I am in favor of a petition to allow spicy back. She is spicy, as the name implies, after all.
But, she helped countless posters and often only became spicy when others had done something first (and/or had a history of doing things).
Again, I don't agree with an attacking approach. But, I think there's a difference between a crazy, purely evil type of attacking comment vs. one provoked by a history of antagonism.
LASTLY: Let's all have a chance to reconcile with each other as well. I don't want tension. We've all said things at times that have been hurtful or ill-thought out that we probably regret. If there is a chance for genuine peace and reconciliation, then let us always value that more than legalistic banishment of someone.
