Is either a reason why you ask for more candidates for banning, rather than for candidates for unbanning?

I'm not sure I understand your question as stated, but let me take a shot anyway.

1. I've never asked personally that anyone be banned, for any reason. In my opinion, the existing safeguards against disruptors, the moderators, the abuse button, etc. are sufficient to remove offensive material from FR.

2. My question to Saber was based on his statement in Post 825, to wit:

"It's not just who you ban, it's who you don't ban. The inconsistencies are found between the two."

It seems logical to assume that Saber has one or more Freepers in mind that he thinks should be banned, but who haven't been banned and are being allowed to continue posting. All I asked was that Saber be more specific about who he thinks should be banned.

I'm asking for one or the other, because I'm asking for consistiency.

The FR sky is either blue, or it's green... I'm flexible.

However, if it's blue for one, it's blue for all, and not green or purple for a few.
