What's the official line on these? Obviously it's not a straight banning for PBM, as there are members like Blue Automatic, who is obviously RedRevolver. So are they allowed to return, and their conduct is under scrutiny? If so, then why aren't their accounts 'unbanned' after a certain amount of time? Edit: I don't actually know anything about this place, as I was delightfully informed by several members:) Post edited at 11:18 am on Feb. 6, 2008 by Hannibal

It really depends on the member. In most cases, we don't ban just for being a PBM, though we will put the conduct of members who have been banned under far closer scrutiny than others. When looking at who to allow back, we look at why they were banned, their record before that, how sincere they appear to be, if they've been let back before...all sorts of stuff. We make the decision strictly on a case-by-case basis. There's a lot of cases, though, where even if we'll let someone back on a new account, we won't give them their old one back.

And why would that be?

Why do we sometimes let back on other accounts, or why will we often not give them the original account back?

Sorry, why do you not allow them their original accounts.

Because often, those names carry a lot of associations. Also, to be honest, they've lost the right to lose that account. That's the name they want? Tough. They were given a chance: they should be glad they're allowed here at all. 
I would have just thought that created problems identifying returning members, and treating them as such.
