The way this was worded would steer me more towards thinking he only outed this person because it served to possibly benefit himself not the server https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/386258140112355329/857038283840946176/unknown.png
I'm not really aware of other alts he has aided in banning but if this singular one is being used as a large argument towards an unban I don't personally think the gesture was in good faith. I would like to also imagine that the company he has kept during his ban might add to that as well.

Rick is a somewhat odd case, It's a perma-ban for toxicity, which is something you can improve upon especially in his transition from a younger teenager to... a young adult. But he's always been a more creatively inclined individual, and fiercely dedicated towards getting back onto the server. Regardless of whether it was his intent to benefit himself outing someone else for rule-breaking (which I wholeheartedly know it was!) it would still look the exact same even if it wasn't his intent. Selfish desires that don't harm the server aren't exactly against the rules.
and take it from me, I was imo numero uno for permaing rick at the time before his ban and for quite a few of his early appeals. I HATED Rick just before his ban and afterwards.
I've since changed my stance afterwards due to his creative inclinations aswell as the passage of time. Sure, he might not be changed in any large regard. However a select portion of what he did is something that can be found in individuals such as myself across the community. He just didn't spread his incidents out well enough. There's only so much people can take in so little time but I believe server has also toughened up quite a bit and he's also got a reason to watch his steps now. Thin ice is an understatement. So sure, if he shows progress or at the very least, restraint he'll be fine. Existing on this server and being a good person isn't a requirement just being... terrible will result in your removal (snoz). Neutrals don't get touched so you just have to learn how to control yourself, maybe he will maybe he won't so I say lets find out.
