There are as many opinions here as there are members of this group.
This issue is generating a lot of traffic that is not helpful to the
grpup. We have one person who cannot control himself. Banning him will
break the fever and let the group move on.

A very simple solution is for everyone to be aware that the list is moderated,
and throw in a public warning to whoever is continuously abusing others
verbally, not necessarily ban the person. The point is to make the offensive
person reflect on themselves. Banning them would result in upsets and possible
worse attitudes in other lists.

Yes until you’ve eventually removed everyone from deviating from your
acceptable use over time.
Banning someone from any mailing list is just weak sauce. The only exception
to that at least for me is spammers. There have been serious lack of
moderation and spam problems on other lists like the eyesore list from Google.
Automated programs dumping recruiting adds and so forth is just disruptive.
Pending that though I couldn’t see banning someone.

It only takes one person to throw a list like this into utter chaos. Removing
that person permanently would return the list to a relatively peaceful and more
focused environment.

Yes indeed, this list has gone from, at various stages of its life, totally
noisy and idiotic, to totally over-regulated, veering back toward the noisy
end. I too am a great fan of the love-it-or-leave-it style of discussion, but
there’s something to be said for having a person—possibly just one person—with
a hand near to the levers that restore calm and order in times of imminent
crisis. This goes as well for practically any networked service, not just
email lists.
