I think like XE, we should have ban list cleared as we used to have for Christmas or we can go for Eid. Secondly i don't agree with shunning players over abuse or racism, you can always use /ignore, This ain't some Little Planet. Everyone is a grownup, In reality if someone is being abusive he is just showing you his inner shit and how well he was raised.
That's just personal opinion, we can look at the bright side and let everyone play and only ban cheaters that don't learn from there mistakes. Maybe have a poll or something that lets the community decide, We can make it a official thing for clearing ban list every year,
