I think perma-bans are a really bad Idea too. Especially if they are based on a vote, then its just a popularity contest and all these politics and stuff will start popping up and people forming little clicks and trying expand their spheres of influence with the other clicks until only people on their "side" are still left in the forum.
I mean imagine being banned for saying "shit" or something, and then a bunch of pansies who don't like you and want to exert some form of small minded power over other people all vote and then you get banned essentially for saying "shit" and not "going with the crowd". And that is not my style at all.
So in closing, I agree with all the people who don't agree with perma-bans for all the reasons previously stated and some of my own.
