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=118543746&oldid=118543037

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=118544957&oldid=118543746

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.
