Derek wasn't
the victim, but he was
a victim (in some sense of the word), if that makes any sense.
Let me explain. He broke the rules, yes, and then went on to go even further and get banned, but it needn't have got that far. If people didn't go round provoking him and refusing to let go of the past, he could have become a reasonably

member.
Obviously that's not to excuse what he did, he was clearly in the wrong and deserved to be banned, but if other people hadn't been breaking the rules as well none of this would have necessarily happened.
I'm not talking about people rating his movies badly, by the way (or any other perfectly fine thing anyone did he responded badly to)

Whilst Derek was in the wrong and everyone else's behaviour doesn't excuse his, his behaviour doesn't excuse other people's either, however minor it was in comparison.
But it's all over now. There's no use in talking about this, or reminding anyone, just let him be added to the ever-growing list of banned trolls.
