Can my infraction history be deleted?

[debo]

It's only two, and they're directly related to trolling MacFitz for being racist.


Considering that my actions likely accelerated his permaban, you guys really should be thanking me.


Thanks.

In favor of this

[More-Than-Most]

Can I throw my name in the hat as well... I have been nothing but good for 3 years now and have matured....After a certain amount of years with no infractions people should get a clean record for good behavior.

[JNoel]

Nah.

[Buckwheat]

it'll be the two year anniversary of my last infraction/ban in july.

not sure how that happened.

[JNoel]

I have 4 infraction/4 bans. I must be cooler than everyone here.

[Ezekial]

You went soft, Buckwheat.

I don't think that this will happen.

While your actions may or may not have expidited Mac getting banned, I don't think we can go by the policy that two wrongs make a right.

[Hellcrooner]

^nope but past history should go away after a long time clean.......... i think.

[jlohm1]

trolling is trolling.

[Buckwheat]

he wasn't trolling mac because... well... he was racist.

[jlohm1]

I never saw the posts that got him infracted anyway

One was a sig that was ****ing hilarious considering Mac's stances on things.

I don't remember what post I got infracted for, though.


I get the "two wrongs don't make a right" thing, but I think a sufficient period of time (3 months? 6 months? a year?) should pass, and infractions be erased from a person's account. We've been told that expired infractions don't play into bans, and we've also been told that history does play into bans.

Considering the lack of transparency that this site operates under, the erasing of infractions after some period of time would suggest that we're being judged on recent history and not past transgressions.

If things are serious enough, a ban is issued. For long-term purposes, that's really the only thing that should be considered for other long-term punishment and not something that happened years ago.
