Not involved with the ban, following are personal opinions/observations from reading relevant round logs:
Having looked into it, the ban only applies on the roleplay server.
Trying to blow up the station is, unless executed well by a clever player with prior planning and forethought, is neither engaging for other players nor creative. Moreso doing it almost every opportunity.
The rules are sometimes loosened for people who can make interesting scenarios using dangerous tools, but in this case reading through the logs, with this of course being personal opinion, as roleplaying is a subjective topic, the roleplay felt moreso being used as an excuse to be able to bomb the station (which as could be assumed in this context, did indeed happen rather than them just being used as a threat), rather than to try making a compelling scenario. Antagonists on the roleplay server are compelled to make the round more interesting for the other players, where deleting and gibbing most of it does most often not accomplish such.
That kind of behavior is better suited on the non-roleplay server, where antagonists don't have any obligations, with the ban only targetting access to the roleplay server.
This also appears to have been at least a third documented case (as well as one previous ban) of bombing the rp server station to bits.
