They waste time and energy, don't ban, just stab them between the eyes and gouge their brains out with a cute little mini spade.

Just curious. The policy atm seems to be that they're fine to stay until they really bother either 'You' or Ed, and I wanted to know what everyone else thought.

Lol. Well it depends how idiotic/annoying/sectarian they are.

You need a way to measure the levels, e.g if they insult Islam or a person really badly (like what lolswood said to malik) then first time they should get warnings, if it continues then be banned for a while.

Sometimes its amusing and banning would be extreme.

I think that the policy should be refined:

"they're fine to stay until they really bother either 'You'."

but then again I have shown great tolerance towards Lollywood and Metallica in general...

i think it should be a case by case thing. and not if they "bother" a certain person, but mroe if they insult someone or Islam....bbbbbbbbuuuuuuuuuuuut. they DO make revvy interesting and are really good revision tools. not tools. revision..euh..thingies.. euh...

Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary?

I went for a fifth option of "Something else", I mean who defines annoying? If someone is dangerously secetarian or wants to stir up hatred and trouble rather than a mature debate, then it might be better to warn them first.
I think banning should be left for the most extreme cases.
