Yes, I didn't want to imply that Felipe is without fault here, but a ban is a real drastic measure, which should stay reserved for situations where there's no other way. And even then I stand by my assertion: Never ban in an emotionally charged situation. Taking a break and handling the situation later will almost always give better results.
(Just in case anyone wonders: I was - as far as I know - never on the receiving end of a ban hammer, but more than once on the giving end.)
- bkor 13y agoA ban is not drastic at all. GNOME Bugzilla is for bugreports. There is no freedom of speech. If someone mostly contributes noise, does not want to listen, he's asked multiple times to please change his attitude, still continues, then the person will get banned. Felipe is suggesting in some other comment that this should all be per conversation method. E.g. warn him very clearly on this topic in GNOME Bugzilla separately from private email, mailing lists as well as Google+. Wrong expectation to have.
