"I have decided that beep(at)piefed.world is allowed to stay – with conditions. I have reached out privately to them about their past behavior, and they conveyed that they will respect the rules going forward." oh cool! i totally trust a poster who posted *specifically in bad taste in order to fight with as many people possible* to stand by his weird obsessive stance. i also *totally trust* the dude that instantly made alt accounts and alt communities just so he could attempt to evade bans and new rules. I'm so happy to hear he *promised* this time! that makes such a huge difference!

I don't trust them either given they explicitly disobeyed rules before (which I'm sure hundreds of people pointed out to them, e.g. about post limits), but I can promise you I'll be keeping an eye on what they post here. They won't get the same leeway again, and I think it's a reasonable olive branch by jerkface given that they *are* able to post good material here when they stick within the rules – and, in my mind, so that the catalyst of the mod transition doesn't steal the spotlight as a singular reason for the transition. This isn't just "/c/comicstrips but beep isn't here", and I think that conveys that message while giving beep plenty of rope, so to speak. We'll keep them in check, and it won't be a problem again. Rehabilitation where it's possible, and I think it's possible here.
