There's a bit of a contradiction here, Milos. If we want to attract
new editors and keep existing ones, the way to do that is to reduce
the trolling and disruption, not welcome back people who've caused it.
The trolling and general silliness is (anecdotally) one of the main
reasons established editors have been leaving, and it must be
incredibly off-putting to new people too.
