A frank and open dialogue about hacking

Very well-said and a great message. But I think if it is common knowledge that the person posting is a hacker and continues to be a proponent of hacking, they should not be allowed to be a member of the forum, even if they would follow the rules of the forum to a tee.

I agree pretty much with this. I know I discussed this once before, but I still think if someone is a well-known hacker or passing as one they should be banned on sight, even if you can't be proven it isn't someone impersonating the hacker, that's what it'd bring to themselves. It would help strengthen the sense of southperry as a hacking intolerant community, even if it was just appearance.

But that is just me, go on with your business.
