To me, it sounds awfully draconian to ban these people. If for
whatever reason, they don't have a real account, then there
is even more reason to bring them into the light, not shut
them forever in darkness!
I don't want to see 20 line adverts, but .sig size ones are
not nearly as offensive as the junk mail I (and probably
most everyone else) receive daily.
I think that more verbage, resources, and time have been
wasted on debating this than could be accounted for in
a year's worth of what we are talking about banning.
As my friend said, Don't have a $1000 meeting to fix a $100
problem!
