Anyways my point of all along has been new game, new people, newer forums to some degree, new chance should be in there. Especially if they will have an active account and pay to play then they should be entitled for a new beginning just like everyone else whether some agree and some don't.

Someone wants to use criminals as example? A lot of criminals are given parole and that is the same as a second chance. All players who fit into the guidelines deserve a chance of parole even if they are put on a probational period for their second chance. There is absolutely nothing lost by giving them a chance so why deny them? They were banned from 1.0 forums for reason whether good or bad and served their 1.0 sentence until 1.0 forums go down and 2.0 forums come up. 2.0 Forums starting fresh and new they should start fresh and new with their second chance on probation and as I said before Win-Win. These players have some of their faith restored in SE by receiving a second chance, SE wins because it is part of their goal to restore faith in their customers and more activity on the forums at launch.
