This is actually a very forgiving board. When RCF got banned the first time he was the most hated person in the history of d-m.com. I decided to join the board under an alias that was similar to RCF's AND I used the same American Flag icon. I made sure that no other poster on the board knew what was going on and the only mod who knew was dj. I was trying an experiment to see whether talking strictly basketball could >restore< the reputation of the worst poster EVER.
It worked. Everyone seemed to think that RCF had straightened up his act and I got along with everyone (even the people who hated RCF). After a couple of weeks I got bored with the experiment and had dj lock the account. But the results were clear - the posters here treat the trolls like trolls and the solid posters like everyone else. If uberdirk was interested in changing then he would never get banned again.
