While I wouldn't be here if not for that ban wipe, didn't the ban wipe happen because there was a general shift in the rules and tone of goon? Like, the rules were so different that it was perceived that people were being held accountable under a rule set different from the one actually in place. I mean, for christ's sake, the forums used to be called autistic powers (or was it dong labs? or both?), and you got banned for making emotes in chat, and mentioning anime in literally any context.
I don't think this is a good idea. It'd do nothing but really bring misery to everyone for a month as all tons of formerly banned players get weeded out again. Goon hasn't drastically changed in terms of rules since the previous ban wipe. Most people suffering from ancient bans, who would be the main target of this ban wipe, generally have an easier time appeal their bans than fresh bans; that is, the people who'd come in would be the people with fresher bans who couldn't really appeal them.
