Here we have the perfect example of why one shouldn't judge the moderators harshly without any information.
I've publicly told Ruben to stop. Instead, this user has created multiple accounts and spams this list incessantly. A ban would do nothing. I personally reject far more messages from this person that I approve, and there are dozens a day. And because of this "censorship" we impose, Ruben has take it upon himself to create a separate "Hangout" mailing list to which he forwards all messages---including some _private messages_ between him and others. He forcefully subscribed people to this list, and does not honor unsubscription requests.
A ban does nothing to help this situation. Indeed, the moderation we did choose to do has resulted in an angry reaction that has only inflamed the situation further.
One again, I ask that people please assume that moderators are acting in good faith.
