Bringing this up again, as it's getting silly. Daniel Brandt posts here, and I rv him per policy as a banned user:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3ADaniel_Brandt&diff=1185...
I get undone here with the comment "it is ridiculous that brandt should not be allowed to comment on his own article":
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3ADaniel_Brandt&diff=1185...
I then refactored out his commentary (Brandt's), reported his IP to AIV as posting by a banned user, and that IP is now blocked.
My question: *if* there is concensus to allow banned users to post if "some people feel like letting them", why not SAY that in the banning/blocking policy? Because that seems to be... the practice.
