As for your banning, I don't remember the legal details, but if the CC was doing something illegal back then that you felt the need to take a stand to force change, what about now? You're the lawyer, does the CC have reason to be afraid of legal action? If so, why haven't you taken a similar stand to force whatever other change is needed? If not, then why does the CC feel the need to banish long-time players over forum posts of dubious to non-existent threat level? Also, if that's the case, then why get spun up about Corbett selling CC foils on eBay?

I never said the bolded part, so maybe re-examine your entire last paragraph.There's plenty of precedent for "permanent" bans not being permanent.Since this your thread I feel that quoting you from the other thread is in bounds.
Kevin Jaeger was suspended for a period of time for making legal threats years ago. He's an active member of the community now.
The Moderators (at least as of 4/1/2019) were real uncomfortable not having any wiggle room for reinstatement and we spent a lot of time on what the top of the ban ladder looked like in real terms (answer: a de facto 6-month ban followed by reconsideration).
You may not like John Corbett or Ben Hosp, or want them in the community, but let's not pretend that permanent bans are a real thing. It's been close to a year, I'm hoping cooler heads have had a chance to prevail.
You are selectively and as usual missing the part where the supposed threat was a "the cc needs to change this thing bc it is illegal" and part of me coming back was because it actually was changed. So what I did was to help via tough love.
Of course that doesn't fit your little persecution narrative bc it runs against what corbett and Ben are doing which is to hurt the cc for no reason other vengeance and spite over the fact that they didn't get succeed in turning the cc into their own little feifdom where the rules don't apply to them.
You say there isn't any coordination bc Ben doesn't have social media....you expect anyone to give any weight to your arguments or afford you any trust when you start off with insult our intelligence level lies - as if we aren't smart enough to know what texting and emails are much less "da group chat" and the fact that Darrel, Phil and sandy only ever pop up to be avenging pawns in this game of nonsense chess.
