>The problem with that is because of the past history on previously banned members. Some took it pretty bad. This has caused serious issues on this site as well as to my personal life. Because of potential legal issues in regards to ban members, we have been recommended to do specific procedures on the related accounts when that happens. Some of those procedures are intended to protect the banned members as well as protecting this site. So, this means, we would have to revise all that, from a legal perspective and that will take time because this costs a lot.
Maybe JVP will give you legal advices for free...!
(Please excuse me for this joke, I simply could not resist! I know this is a very serious issue, and must be tretead as such.)
