I will give one thing to Simon on this, he was upfront and public about
it. My concern isn't that he was so harsh, heaven knows there are plenty
of people in this community (myself included) that can come off harsh.

My concern is the lack of humility being shown by the protagonist. Fabio
has done everything right since the initial infraction, yet a prominent
member has only sat on a high horse through the whole thing.

It makes the entire community look bad.
