I don't think he should be banned. I find the bragging about BLHack obnoxious but I don't find it ban-worthy. Val's work on reverse engineering Blockland was used for both bad and good, but since then it's been used for substantially more good than bad. How many of you have had your game-play ruined for more than 10 minutes by some child using BLHack in the last 3 years? How many of you have had your game-play supplemented by player collision toggle, selective ghosting, or move handler?
Currently I see him as a pretty constructive member of the community. For example, I think there are very few people who would've been able to answer the question I had in
this thread. If you go through the guy's recent posts you'll find that pretty much everything he posts he is posting with the intent to help people make good mods for Blockland which increases the longevity of Blockland's lifespan and by extension the forum. At
some point this has to outweigh the damage he did with some stuffty program that helped people troll a couple Knife DMs a couple years ago.
Furthermore I fail to see what banning the guy off the forum would even accomplish. He wouldn't be able to post helpful information in regards to people who are trying to make add-ons for Blockland, but he would still be able to make malicious extensions and hack the game. Even if you jumped to the nuclear option and revoked his keys there's nothing stopping him from sourcing $10 and just getting another one without anybody's knowledge lol. How far are you willing to go to alienate and piss off some dude who isn't
really doing anything wrong at the moment but is by far the most capable of hacking the game?
That being said he's still a furry so he needs to be ban on sight
