Just a thought.

i don't even remember why he was banned in the first place, but i thought i'd heard that he sort of had no interest in coming back? it's a pity, as i thought his advice/posting was quite good. i'm guesing there's only one man whose opinion actually matters on this, and it's he who banned him. we'll await that i guess.

I believe Mat banned him for repeated offenses which ended in a curse-filled rant.

I remember the rant well, it was quite a read, but now, months (if not over a year) later, I feel like it would be ok to come back as long as he didn't curse. Now, maybe he won't want to, but that's another issue.

The cursing was the final straw. I recall him going out of his way to be a prick to Felicia and others. I say we let felicialee decide.

felicialee should not be the one who decides.

Thanks for the confidence, but I agree with others that I could hardly be unbiased in this case.

Vehn's behavior towards me wasn't really that bad, I got involved more because of his behavior towards others. I can usually handle being flamed, and even stalked around some forums, but I hate to see others get really worked up about it. He seemed to have some kind of problem with women and some of his ranting was clearly sexist.

I, too, have heard that he has no desire to come back, so why would we go out of our way to "invite" him back?

What made you think of this, anyway? Was he PM'ing you to get back? If we unban him, are we planning on sending him an e-mail to say, "Hey, we think you're AOK, now?"

Isn't Vehn the reason Annie Duke stopped posting here?

(FWIW, I probably would be in favor of unbanning him, but wanted to put that on the table)

I know Vehn personally and I don't think he has any interest in coming back. I don't see any reason to even raise the issue unless he makes a request.
