I take it you object to the fact that "They give a lot of leeway to long term trolls yet they do not give a fraction of that to good standing users." Now, I agree, and they should start banning long-term trolls. Who, I wonder, would be first up against the wall were that to happen?
I suspect quite a lot of users would agree that we should take a harder line on some people; however, I'm not sure that there is wide agreement on WHICH people. One person's troll is another person's unfairly maligned good user, I find.
Arbcom suffers from the well-known and far from unique problems of committees (slow to decide, cautious). However, being quick and rash isn't necessarily the right thing either.
