Even if it is him, the fandom needs to reach a compromise. He ain't going. You can't make him. This dump old acc make new acc story is gonna repeat until the end of time. Preferably with focusing on animal well-being from now on. And making sure he doesn't run off to some shady community again.

I'm not a mind reader, but Kero landed himself where he was because there was no one there for him to pull him back. I read the logs. He's probably the least vile person in there and honestly it's a fucking miracle he didn't do worse things. People make mistakes. Sometimes BIG mistakes.
