Such as? What was the venue for this discussion?
People who have dealt with him and similar problems participated on an invitation basis.
That sounds pretty cabal-like to me. I understand the need for privacy
in certain situations, but if ArbCom are going to make decisions in
secret they at least need to publish those decisions (but not the
reasons for them, if absolutely necessary). There is a space on
WP:RFAr for motions not part of a current case - that's where this
decision should have been made, even if the discussion about it was
private. That way we know what the decision is and who made it, even
if we don't know the reasons.
