Amy's right, I'd been discussing this with the Ministers before I ever banned him. Baltija, frankly, is more trouble than he's worth, he goes out of his way to start shit. Frankly, I would have been perfectly happy had he just kept his ass in the Lex and continued making trouble and booting people at random from IRC as he had been.
However, I will not put up with such bullshit here. There were a few people (I won't name names) who wanted me to ban him the minute he came to Taijitu. But, I wanted to give him a clean slate. And within a week, he had fucked it up. And as far as I know, he *was* informed of his right to appeal. He is more than welcome to, and we'll give him whatever processes are granted in the constitution.
But don't treat this or imply that this is OMGBANNINGZ... 'cause it's not. It was getting rid of a problem and a pain in the ass to a lot of people.
