Request to Unban Themrock on DeviantArt

To:  deviantArt Administrators

This petition is signed to Deviantart Administrators
concerning the ban of Dirk Erik Schulz, under the username Themrock.

We, as users of deviantArt and admirers of Dirk's art, we ask you to reconsider unbanning him. He may have broken the harassment violation, even again after getting his first warning, which may seem that he was pushing his limits - we're sure it was a misunderstanding when viewing the seriousness of the issue and not taking everything in to account.

Some of us, being friends of Dirks, assure you that his apology for his harassment has been sincere, and not merely things he feels are in need to be said just to get himself unbanned. As understood, Dirk and the victim of harassment have already solved their personal issues outside of deviantArt - as his insult was only targeted towards one person, who has already received an apology from Dirk, there should be no further mishap from their account.

Dirk has been a member of deviantArt's commune for 4 years, and there's a number of people who appreciate his art and like to keep track of it via deviantArt. It would truly be a pity if we had to lose the chance to continue seeing his artwork after such incident. Surely this sort of violation won't happen again on his part.

We thank you for taking your time to read this, and perhaps reconsider.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
