I have to mirror Spencerz statements. My standpoint also comes from being on the internet for a real long time (1992). It's spawned a culture of people who don't think their actions have consequences on here because people think there is a certain level of protection being "anonymous" (as much as an illusion this mentality is) I was a head strong kid myself once upon a time and learned some hard lessons interacting with people online. Suffice to say, as much as we all enjoy comics, the fact is this is a somewhat professional site. If ironman444 was in a job he would have been fired. The year long ban is to teach him accidents have consequences, and my standpoint is also that people who are that angry about not getting their way usually stoop to the level of vandalizing wikis. So it's also a protective measure to insure that he isn't going to muck about. If he's sorry and actually wants to come back and make a valid contribution without being abusive he can contact one of the admins and apologize. And frankly, I really don't see that happeneing. As an admin, I've seen my share of blow ups by people who bugger off and never come back because they never had a valid input and had no intention of doing so. I'm making a judgement call and assuming this person is like that, so I acted to protect the best interest of the wiki.
