The moderators have agreed to ban this user from subscribing to the list. Since he was not making any positive contributions through his membership, it has been revoked.
This is sort of sad; gadflys and contrary opinions help strengthen projects, and on his good days, he was on the "probably making me think enough that it's positive overall" side of things.
But I see why, from the bad days.
We need a better class of gadfly.
Speaking as an upper class gadfly, I have to say that Parker Peters wasn't that bad and shouldn't have been banned.
People need to learn how to killfile users they don't like, instead of appealing to moderators.
