May I enquire: Whether Glesga Ned recieved a warning, either on or off board prior to his expulsion? I suspect he didn't and Admin probably felt there were just grounds. I would like to suggest a procedural tweak,

With Glesga there was an improvement or mollification in his posts from Kellascat onwards. If you get an unruly kid joining the class you dont just expel him straight away. I think the kid had potential.

I would like to request that in future a warning is issued, publicly and privately prior to a banning. I think a private PM or email is a difficult thing to ignore. If it is ignored then the case for expulsion is watertight.
Even If it is an extreme breach, then "people" should at least be given the chance for apology and remorse.

I do happen to think that Glesga deserves another chance, clearly warned, but will respect if admin feel that unacceptable. His breaches were not heinous. I basically believe he mis-judged the spirit of POL. I did that myself in the beginning.
