Should X-Calibur be banned?

It has been brought to my attention that, for his actions in IM'ing me to vote on his battle, he has been issued nothing but a warning. First and foremost, is it not true that he has received warnings in the past for his illegal actions concerning the site rules? To my knowledge, he has even been, in the past, banned for this very same offense. Why, then, now that he is staff, is he magically allotted sanction from the site rules? What is the point in having a governing system of rules at all, if they are not enforced for EVERYONE. Lockhart was banned for this very reason. As was Grizz. Why were they not granted the same amnesty for this behavior that X-Calibur was? Why, now, is there this inherent double standard concerning staff? He has clearly shown, not only a lack of understanding about the rules, but, a habitual behavior in breaking these very rules appointed to the site. Does this, mean, then, that I now am allowed to IM someone promoting my battle? No, of course not. So, why, then, should the behavior be deemed acceptable by another individual, simply because they are a member of the staff?

Anyway, poll added. Vote, or don't. I don't give a fuck.
