yea its hard to call it a community ban if… no one in the community had any input or viewing of it whatsoever…
as evidently a decent chunk of the community DOES like him and a quick search of his profile shows 0 ban appeals on record, i don’t know why he’d be “community b&” if a.) the community likes him and b.) he hasn’t been thru ban escalation
ban feels extremely personal, not community based
