There are lots of other ways to never risk a ban that can make for a fine poster, but they aren't the only ways to be a good poster. Voicing unpopular opinions and refusing to bow to the majority here puts you at risk of being banned (as memyselfi's experience illustrates), for example.

No, pretty much all you have to are stay with in the rules and you can voice most any opinion you want. Denise actually disproves your point. She can sympathize with terrorists after 9/11, she can only come out of the woodwork to spout controversial position on an already contreversial topic or some tragedy and still not be banned because she supposedly does not meet the traditional definition of a troll.
I disprove your point because I vehemently disagree with the mods not banning her. Yet neither her nor I have been banned. You are WRONG.

So again, speaking of staying within the rules of the community, what rule was it that Hootie broke? You don't have any idea, but that's not stopping you from being sure that Hootie is the guy at fault here. Brilliant.

As already stated, Hootie has established a pattern. It would be same as me believing gochiefs deserved to get banned for something I didnt witness back in his trolling hay day (or even now for that matter). You build your own reputation. Hootie had to live with the one he has built for himself.
