A second was removed that outlined my reasons why Jimeee didn't overstep his bounds, which is entirely on topic. The last one removed I tried to explain why the second one was on-topic and should not have been removed. I don't see how the second two should have been removed. Having not seen it, I can't comment. Re-post it. If it's removed I'll gladly switch my vote to oppose, since if your comment is what you claim it should be fair and on-topic. In the second post I pointed out that if Jimeee had just banned the person 2 weeks over one comment, that would be excessive, but it appeared from talk page posts weeks prior to the ban, there were quite a few issues stemming from the bannee (including an interaction ban). This indicated to me that this was not an isolated incident, but the continuation of a previous history of personal attacks. In the case of a history of personal attacks, a 2 week ban is not excessive, nor was it an immediate ban. It is quite regular to get a multi-week ban for a small attack if that attack comes after weeks of other small attacks. The ban wasn't for the one attack it was for the history of them. Thus, because the bans weren't excessive, he wasn't overstepping his bounds and thus shouldn't be demoted.

Hopefully this one isn't removed too.
