> 1) Asking for an apology to the board and/or people any offending comments where directed at.
People are always free to apologize. But I'd rather there weren't offending comments in the first place.
> 2)Judge by peers. Take a vote from members on if a person should be blocked.
This has been discussed before. One issue is how supportive it would be to have people voting against each other. Plus there are technical issues...
> this board ... deserves a progressive, open, liberal-like approach to how "offenders" are treated.
What about those who are offended? What kind of treatment do they deserve?
> Can we get more discussion on this, and possibly open this policy to change?
Discussion is fine, and I try to be open-minded, but IMO, it ain't too broke...
