[POLL] DAY 2; It's been nearly 1 year since Tyler1 was banned. Is he Reformed? [DISCUSSION THREAD]
I. INTRO:

FULL STORY BELOW: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmXFUI853Rc
I am creating a poll every day between now and April 30th 2017, the 1 year anniversary of Tyler1's indefinate perma ban.
Day 1 poll results: https://gyazo.com/bec6cc989b7431fd0a3d0dec39755739
Total Votes: NO UNBAN: 46; UNBAN: 69; NO OPINION: 11
II. BODY:
I identify myself as a toxic player. In fact I am sadly well known as that Toxic Morde guy on reddit. This is NOT something I am proud of. In fact I uninstalled League 40+ days ago in an effort to detox and maybe one day come back to the game with a better attitude.
Nonetheless I began loving what Tyler1 does AFTER he got perma banned. It was not immediate, but as the months came and went, Tyler1, at least for me, began to exhibit true blue reform. As the video at the top shows, he has been trying not only to reform himself, but** also his fans.**
Unlike most of the community, Tyler1 does not signify Toxicity to me. He signifies sincere reform. I feel that if someone who burned through 20+ accounts can turn his act around, then someone like myself, who was never once banned, but still ashamed of my behavior can as well. I want to believe that unbanning Tyler1 can become an anti Toxicity movement. I believe there can be no better time to unban him than to mark his 1 year anniversary since being banned.
EDIT: Phreak and fellow Rioters allowed that if they could conclude Tyler1 was truly reformed, he could be unbanned https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcY-0QVYgH4&feature=youtu.be&t=1m34s
However that is only my own opinion. I want to hear the opinion of others in the community. I am requesting that you guys use this forum as a chance to present sound arguments and opinions. I understand your passions, but please do not flame me for voicing mine.
III. EXAMPLES:
There is a correct way and an incorrect way to do this:
Is Tyler1 reformed? Does he deserve to be unbanned?
INCORRECT:
> [{quoted} He isn't and doesn't deserve an unban. Give it a fucking rest already.
CORRECT:
> [{quoted} I think his punishment hasn't been long enough. The dude ruined literally thousands of games over dozens of accounts. I think bare minimum he should be banned at least 1 month for every account of his that has gotten permanently banned. That said, if he shows some true reformed behavior or philanthropic work then that may sway my opinion.
IV. QUESTIONS:
As stated above this is a discussion thread. These are the questions I present:
A) Is Tyler1 reformed?
B) Does he deserve an unban?
C) Should he become unbanned do you think he will use this chance or waste it?
D) Do you think the community will make it hard for Tyler1 if he WAS unbanned? (Oh I see Tyler1 streaming League again, let's snipe him and int his games to make him rage)
E) If this became an issue, how do you think Tyler1 would respond? Should respond? How would you deal with it if you were him?
** F) If he doesn't deserve an unban, why?**
