There's been a level of civility around here that gets violated from time to time. Banning is an overreaction, but whether or not he realizes it, he's effectively banning himself. The only reason I might read one of his posts now is for entertainment purposes, even though I'm sure he has something useful to say somewhere. Its not worth my time to sort through the insults and profanity to come up with a small nugget of "that might be useful". I'm sure I'm not alone in this regard. Timecop, please try to remember that developers and other contributors are people too. Happy GIMPing, and may this thread die a timely death.
