D'oh. I don't know where I got the impression that he was fairly new (to
posting, at least, because there's no way to tell how long someone's been
lurking).
That does color things slightly- after all, it means he's been here long enough
to know what kind of behaviour is deemed appropriate, and what kind isn't, and
on the other, it means that he's not a new member, so every post he makes isn't
going to have some ulterior motive.
I'm not sure if that changes how I feel, but frankly I'm just kind of tired of
the whole situation. I've said before, I won't be upset if he stays and I
won't be upset if he goes. He did, in my opinion, violate the spirit of the
T&C, and that makes it up to you what to do with him.
The only thing that got me really riled in the whole situation is people's
obsession with making his *viewpoints* a reason to ToSs him, which I strongly
disagree about.
