Who's "hating" on him. We're merely saying how Eetrabs actions arent exactly ban worthy. Just because someone has a tendency to say half way unpleasant things doesnt mean they should be banned just for expressing their cynical opinion. He never outright insults anyone in a profane or vulgar manner. He expresses his opinion bluntly and truth be told I think Eetrab has his place in the forums, hes the other side. Expressing sometimes the unpopular opinion and while you may not agree with it, and may even take it as a personal affront its not sufficient reason to have him banned or silenced.
Also, Eeetrab isnt just like a forum troll who just says negative things at every turn. He posts on threads to set the record straight most of the time. For instance here where he helped put an end to the bickering on Lighting's appeal.

Last I checked this was Lightning's ban appeal not a free speech convention. Let him do what he wants–taking the advice or not–and staff will make the appropriate judgement. Unless someone has something meaningful and relevant to say, it is probably wise to stop commenting.
He can sometimes be the only voice of reason in a thread, and he also posts on ban appeals to assist, not to flame.

While there's no reason to have this ban be accepted I also dont see a reason for you to go above and beyond with the drama Meow, no one is saying your crazy or stupid. Or that they dont like you. Its important not to confuse disagreement with outright hatred. Now just let this thread fade.
