Pirate was a good roleplayer, besides his OOC attitude I genuinely liked the fella. Provided some good moments for me, especially in SRP.
Flaxxy on the other hand is relatively new compared to most of us around, and has yet to really do anything that strikes me as definite perma-ban. Sure, I guess you can get angry with his S2K, or his abundant ingame script collection. The shit he did today is close to nothing compared to Dave's 'attack' on the Nexus. Several occasions where Dave and his soldiers took down plenty of CCA. The OUR's annihilation of the plaza.
Flaxxy is just like Dave and the others, ect. He is just not an admin, or an older player.
He can improve, like all human beings can. He just needs a little motivation(Which I think if he hasn't tasted already he will never taste). Constant badgering and bans are not going to do anything but piss him off, as he is a human being. It feels like sometimes you guys forget that. Flaxxy gets caught up in some dumb shit, sure. He's not very good at deciphering idiocy before it's too late. And he's bad at apologies, so we permanently ban him.
I guess Flaxxy is an outlet for your hatred against Dave, LittleB, or whoever else? Honestly, I've had a few good times with Flaxxy. The good don't outweigh the bad, but it shows that he is capable of being a normal person.
Like Scone said; let's wait until he does the literally unforgivable, pushes the entire community so far that the backlash is a permanent ban. I don't think he's gotten there yet, and there is hope for him.
