Well said Dave. I would encourage you to implement something
regarding permanent bans too. Heck, I'm banned on 7 threads,
yet I never violated SI's TOU or established thread guidelines
(at the time of the ban) on any of the threads where I'm banned.
Meanwhile, I've had those 7 bans thrown in my face as proof
of me being a horrible person on SI.

"That's not to say there are not moderators (and participants) who prefer to have only like-minded discourse on their thread, which is perfectly acceptable since anyone can start another thread on the same topic."

It may be perfectly acceptable to you (wearing your SI Admin
hat). But it's also quite hypocritical when those threads
that do not identify themselves as "prefer(ing) to have only
like-minded discourse on their thread" - even more so when a
thread specifically claims "All opinions are welcome here",
ET AL.

And that point is most likely the major reason for all 7 of
my bans.
