How would you define "good faith" in this context? I would say that if
a contributor continues to do "X" after several good faith "please
don't do X" requests from reasonable people, then that person is no
longer a "good faith contributor" and any of his contributions with
"X" in them are not "good faith contributions".

Therefore, Arbcom is not being "unfair" to such a person by ruling against him.
