There's no way any of them will feel bad about it, unfortunately. If anything, they'll be smugly feeling that they've "won".
Even without being able to name them though, I'm sure the vast majority of people on here are fully aware of who the main culprit is anyway.
Sadly the way these people are, I can see it continuing over to any successor forum, regardless of whether they're banned from the outset or not, they're as likely to lash out from not being allowed on the forum from the start as they did over getting banned from here and TVF. I can't help but think it's going to be very hard to get a successor forum going in the long term as these handful of people are such a stain on our community.
