Tomash was never banned. There wasn't a strong enough consensus. It was a self-imposed exile, which he could have ended at any time.
So, if he wants to come back, he can come back.

As Tomash pointed out when he announced his ban, while the idea of his temporary ban was favored, there was never any consensus on the actual length. Tomash himself called it a ban for “2-3 months” in the above post. The reason I’m bringing this up is because we’re approaching the mid-point of two to three months; in fact, this coming Tuesday, the sixth of June, will be the “seventy-five days" rough halfway point since Tomash left.
So, is that date an all right time for Tomash to return to the community? Does anyone have any particular objections to that date, or reasons he should wait longer?

In my opinion, he can come back whenever he wants. I'm more or less in line with Phobos.

When you say, we're approaching the mid-point of two to three months, you mean we are currently in the period of thirty-forty-five days, correct?
And honestly, I would be perfectly fine if the ban were to be set to two months, and he was allowed to return after sixty days had passed, but failing that, I see no issues with seventy-five days.
Um, I'm not sure what you mean by "the period of thirty-forty-five days." We're at roughly two months and two weeks since Tomash's ban started, with today the seventy-third day of the ban, and Tuesday the seventy-fifth. Counting a month as thirty days, that makes day seventy-five the equivalent of two-and-a-half months, the average of a "two- to three-month ban."
Have I helped?
