Recently a number of us were unbanned. I view this as overall positive. How do you feel about them? Some have expressed concern that undesirables were let back. Overall feel that the good it brought outweighs the bad.

It makes sense for GS to reverse moderations and/or bannings for things which are now obsolete ToS wise. Don't like a user? Get over it. That's life.

To sum up the unbannings.....the good, the bad, and the ugly. Not all banned users should have been resurrected....not all should have been banned to start with.

I think it's pretty cool.

Don't remember many of the users brought back, though.

Some people are sure to have moved on. Or perhaps they are unaware. Know they sent out an email. Though perhaps that email is no longer in use.

Mabye I'm mistaking him for someone else, but didn't he commit acount suicide in response to a some other user getting banned. If so, I doubt he's interested in coming back.

Unbanning should never occur... Only the elite of the elite should be allowed to post here.

Meh, don't know any of the people that have gotten banned then unbanned... Don't really care about them either... To be honest, I don't know/care about anyone on here with the except of one person who I actively keep in touch with.

A good amount of great users who were banned are now back to help spice up this place, I greatly approve of the unbannings.

Of course some crap users have returned as well, but the good unbanned users make up for it I believe. that plus the stupidity of some of the not so good unbanned users may provide entertainment atleast.

If I was banned I'd never come back. I don't understand this revolving door thing on this site.
