Just for the sake of accuracy, I need to clarify that there are only two ways someone could be banned:

1. They break the rules of this forum in an extremely serious way, which would lead to Forum Administration imposing a ban on their forum account. Since Forum Administration does not concern itself with allegations of wrongdoing related to the regional government, it would not arbitrarily ban SJS Republic, no matter how loud people asked.

2. They are convicted of treason by the High Court. Since the punishment for treason is an immediate ban from both the region and the forum, the Delegate would eject and ban the nation and Forum Administration would ban the forum account. Even in those cases, there are parole procedures laid out in the Code of Laws. SJS Republic would receive full amnesty if he publicly admits his culpability.

I just want to clarify that because some might be confusing the terms ban and security threat declaration. While citizens can have their citizenship removed by being declared as security threats by the Cabinet, they are not subject to a ban. The only effect would be the revocation of citizenship. Even in that case they would be entitled to submit an appeal to the Assembly and continue participating in other areas of the forum.

I don't mean to advocate for either option. I just want to lay out the facts, in case anyone felt confused about what each term truly involved.

You could make the case that the Assembly has supreme powers over the region and can simply vote to ban someone. I'll be upfront and say I didn't include that option above because I don't believe in the doctrine of Assembly supremacy. While I agree the Assembly has a lot of leeway in terms of what laws it can issue, I don't believe it can completely bypass issues of greater importance, such as residency and due process. I think in those cases the Assembly must follow what the Charter already states.
