Forum:AR:Administrator discussion - Darth Vacatour


 * Please note that this is just a discussion for administrators. Replies from non-administrators will be reverted.

So for the first thread ever in this new administrative requests board, we have an old controversial member who's returned. Some of us will remember him. Others will say "who?" It's Darth Vacatour. Vacatour was a user back in the early days of SWF. He did some good things, like start the Wiki Awards, but he also did a lot of bad things. Back in late 2006, he was banned for 6 months for abusing multiple sockpuppet accounts. During his block, he kept making sockpuppet accounts, vandalized, and spammed about his "Wiki Government," whatever the hell that meant. He was finally blocked infinitely with this reason: "Making many sockpuppets, spamming, personal attacks."

Now he's back, under the account name Johnathan Amadeuce. Now I've blocked him for three days so we can discuss this, but I think we can assume good faith and let him back. His infinite block was over three years ago. I'm going to take a leap of faith here and say he's matured/grown up since then. If you guys agree, I'll unblock him, and this three day block will be disregarded completely. He should be given a fresh start in regards to blocks and all that, unless he falls back into his old ways (which I doubt will happen).

A question you may be asking is whether this is actually Vacatour. Based on his comment on my talk page, I see no reason not to assume good faith. It seems genuine enough, and we have no proof of anything otherwise.

What are your opinions on this? - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 03:29, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
