When did I say what tito did was okay? Did you see my replies to his thread where he admitted he hacked? Guess it was one of things where no one read anything I say, huh? Maybe you should do so in the future.
I said your comparison of Tito's use of hacks to this guy's use of hacks is stupid.
If you hack, you are lying. That's just how it works. If you're breaking a rule and hiding it, that's the same as lying. The more you do it, the more of a liar you are. Withholding information that you know you should tell someone is also pretty much lying.
If you hacked and never said anything about it to us, you are giving us the false impression that you never hacked... you are lying. I think that's what Greg was saying, and I agree with that.
I don't have a problem unbanning this guy. Doing so under the pretense that because tito wasn't banned we should unban this guy is stupid. Doing so because Joe is now a mod is stupid. He never hacked, and I think he proved himself. At the time, we were less mature as moderators and knew less about the game. Doing so because of anything this guy says about his intentions or anything we can't doublecheck in this thread is kinda dumb, as it's way too easy to lie on the internet. Our members vouching for him is a different story.
Unbanning him because he asked nicely, wasn't manually banned by any of our moderators, and because we don't think he'll be a problem in the future are the ONLY reasons I would like to see anyone using. Everything else strikes me as utter bullshit.
