I'd have to say the league did lose a great member in terms of what he contributed but as mentioned above, his personal attacks of different magnitudes across the forums in a multitude of tirades just became too much to handle. A decision was made to ensure the VHL could prosper. When you have a member who is such a detriment to the community that you had people thinking of leaving or not wanting to come back because of a certain person, you deal with said person accordingly. Had he came back from the ban and leveled out, things would have been better and he would still probably be here to this day. I know first hand what it's like to get banned multiple times across many of leagues. I have sang the same song and dance many of times and I had to pay the price for my actions a plethora of times. I can proudly say that I served out my time the correct way and have reformed from how I used to be. Now I am not saying that he may not have changed but at some point you just have to draw a line and stick to that line remaining intact.
