I agree that we can only control our own smell up to point.... but for this person, things seems to have been way out of control. It may not bother him, yet others might have a different opinion.
I just wonder how bad his feet smell, and if they still smell after 10years have passed. Besides that how many people really wanted to ban him due to this.
Did they give him a chance to fix the problem first and then ban him or just go straight to it. I will have to read more up on it.
