Thank you for your words...

I apologize, in the fact I used the wrong english word when mentioning a "executioner", I never meant to compare a sigban to something so severe.

Anyway, I understand that a sigban is not comparable to a permanent board ban, but yourself mentioned 95%... and what about the other 5% who were "put in the bench" while fearing would lose their campaigns, sometimes without being guilty?

Even if you say that sended private warnings, recent cases show me that this is not enough to prevent mistakes.

Anyway, I am sorry... I also do not see a practical solution for this, my intention is not judge your work (I’ve said this many times), maybe I am insisting too much on that "single unjustified case" which could cause a big problem for an one innocent person, and damage the reputation of a system that had been working very well to the other ~200 cases.

That's quite alright, no apology necessary, and you weren't the first to make this comparison anyway.

Anyway, I understand that a sigban is not comparable to a permanent board ban, but yourself mentioned 95%... and what about the other 5% who were "put in the bench" while fearing would lose their campaigns, sometimes without being guilty?

Its a very real possibility that I'll make mistakes in the future, so if you have been sigbanned and feel strongly I made an incorrect decision, by all means, please speak up right away, as Pumared did.

The faster someone speaks up and shows me where the mistake has been made (without having to resort to getting personal about it), the faster a resolution can be made.

The thing about sigbans is the finality is not as dire as some people are making it out to be:

1. They are temporary.
2. They can easily be reversed.
3. They do not limit one's ability to participate in any other forum activity/function.

I'd also argue that every time I issue a sigban incorrectly or unjustly, it hurts my reputation more than theirs. So I'd rather avoid doing that, which is made possible by incorporating feedback from the community.

I do not know if anyone has already said about this.
But... what do you think about there being a grace period between the decision to restrict a signature and the date when that sigban  is actually applied?
I've not been actively tracking the entire case of the sigban users and from what I can see regardless so far there are very few cases that have actually been reversed. Also I was actually thinking what would happen during the grace period based on how they are gonna recalculate.

Reason I'm saying is because assuming only the tool is used , I don't think just a couple of weeks is actually enough to change the entire data to read a better score overall.
