i just cannot for the life of me see why there should be two sets of notes to document an incorrect banning and the subsequent reversal of that. it makes no sense whatsoever, and at this point i fail to see how you could disagree.

your argument basically seems to consist of 'it's a rule that you don't do that', but applying the rule in this case seems absurd.

At this juncture, I have no idea whether it was an unfair ban or not.

I thought it was a fair ban at the time, so I banned him.

You thought it was unfair, so you unbanned him without discussion.

If you think this is the way to mod, fair enough. We'll all just make our own decisions and the last one counts.

And we won't document our decisions in the Notes, for those who come behind.

In this case, if our Notes were there, and then in two months' time Melchiades is reported as spamming, whatever mod was dealing with the report would have the Notes to refer to.

With your way of no Notes, if the future mod is friends with the guy he can say to himself, "No previous history - he seems like a nice guy", = no action.

You don't see which is the better way for all mods, in general terms?
