Accounts and people are not the same thing. Here's a suggestion about how HN might handle this: - Mods ban TempleOS (offensive, no redeeming value) and similar accounts. - We set showdead = true if we do not agree with mods on "no redeeming value." - We all try not to pass judgement on the people behind those accounts. - We let people with banned accounts make new accounts and try again. I voted no in the poll. I want to keep TempleOS banned, because it's an account with racist and generally meaningless content. But that's very different from keeping Terry out, which I don't think should be our goal.
