Exactly Ganja. He could have just done it and let it be but he took the time to let us know what was going on. That's something a lot of devs/admins don't do.
As for starting a poll for Pit, the results would have been the same as this but the question would have been "Do we allow Pit back in the game?". Very few would vote yes.
If you think we like hackers and want them back in the game, you're dead wrong. The banlist remains quite large and it will stay that way. Pit is a unique case and frankly, I hope he remains legit to prove all you naysayers wrong. As Jonny said, just wait and see, time will tell.
