So you are opposing because you don't think he should be banned like this? How exactly did you want to have a voice? If you don't want community votes, what do you want? The good thing about a community vote is that it is not just people who fell victim to Leon, it is everyone. The so-called victims are here saying he should be banned because he did this, which is a good thing because we hear what he has done that we, the admins, are not aware of. We also have the people who have not interacted with him and their opinions, and ultimately from that we see if the community is more in favoor or not in favour of banning him. Leon has not harassed any admins, he has harassed the community and so that is why we did this. Community votes used to be the norm, but they fell away because we use the SSC more often, however the SSC is actually not for votes, it is for admins to decide whether a request should become a community vote.

Also, the thing you are voting on is: Should Leon be banned? Yes or no. Not: is this the correct way to ban him? You don't answer a yes or no question with a no, because you want to say yes but don't think the question should be asked. That is irrelevant. Rather go neutral or oppose for the right reasons.
