Summing it up:
-Reducing dmt to get bigger booms isn't a good idea.
-Covering it is a bad idea.
-When something with the application is wrong, you re-do it with 3 new replays. No replacements. (relatively new policy to make sure 3 proper replays are readily presented that undoubtedly are ormo-worthy)
That being said, there's no need to apply further penalties, other than deducing points on the application already made.
PR0NE is free to apply again. If he doesn't want to it's his choice. If he does, his application shall be evaluated in an unbiased manner, regardless of past actions.
17april: I understand your point of view, but our job isn't to judge potential. We judge the replays that are presented at the applications and that's it. Of course constructive critics are always encouraged though.
PS: Note that Shook, Tamer0 (Larfen and Splinter are implied too) can always say otherwise
