Normally people tend to QQ far longer than necessary about such things blowing it all out of proportion, however making the second (third? fourth?) thread about it in general discussion wasn't so uncalled for, if Lumetta sincerely thought that the bans should be discussed some more (which he apparently did since he typed up a whole damn essay). Lumetta took a rather hostile approach in his writing, but apart from that I don't see why a discussion/debate/argument/shitpost-fest couldn't have been opened about the bans, although perhaps it would be better suited in the ban section rather than general discussion (and subsequently chamber of tears). The ban threads are unfortunately the last place you are able to talk about bans seeing how the thread gets locked after an admin takes a look at it and passes judgement (most of the time). What we really need is a new thread about "Why yurops care about NA drama so much that they make their own threads about the movement of ours."
That said, the bans are both ended, having been only 8hrs or so, so it's best to forgive and forget at this point.
