we're not preventing him from doing anything
people being negative towards you after you've forgeted them around multiple times is natural and he should expect it. if he can't cope with that (after bringing it on himself), then he should just leave the forums and not come back until he's more mature.
Your argument appears, at least to me, that you're suggesting that he should be forgiven hands-down disregarding his past.
However, one must still connsider the persons past prior to forgiveness.
Once you've forgiven them, the past becomes irrelevant, due to the nature of forgiveness.
Sounds like an all around misunderstanding.
Let me clear it up:
My
personal opinion is that he has changed.
He knows that there will be quite a bit of negative feedback, and he can and has handled it just fine.
I thought 75% of the people her were saying that he should not be forgiven period, I was wrong on that I guess.
I think glass should be given time to show people that he's changed, and I also think that if people want him to change for the better, they need to not purposely not provoke him (not implying any of you are, but many people have before).
