Which is all well and good providing the individual actually learns the ropes.
A temp ban won't do him any harm. I've banned members in the past for less than that and had them thank me only months later.
Nothing wrong with being hard, but fair.
Some members never get the message though. Once you put the ball in their court these types effectively end up banning themselves.
