And you are still alive and posting! And i am quite sure that you not fear for you life. That's not the ******* point you brainless shitstain. I actually WAS fearing for the safety of my family, especially when my mother called me in tears about some weirdo that contacted her on Facebook. You weren't here when I posted the evidence of it here, you weren't there when I was trying to calm her down on the phone, and it's probably never the **** happened to you. More of this "out of sight, out of mind" bullshit where "it didn't happen to me so it's a non-issue". K, whatever. I hope it never does happen to you, it's ******* creepy, but don't ******* trivialise my experience just because I'm 'still standing' or some ****. But forget that, you said this was a bannable offense, and now you're acting like it's not even a thing just because I'm still alive and posting? Are you huffing ******* chalk or something? Get a clue. We know CCP did nothing about this, but what did the police do when you reported it?
He mentioned earlier in the thread that the local authorities did not do anything because they cant act on real life threats that are received trough an online game (or something along those lines).
Please dont ask me to find the post, but its in here somewhere 
That being said, i can fully understand his frustration of seeing someone who has done way less (at least as far as we know) gets a perma ban, while the person who went after him and his family seemingly got away with a warning.
In my own experience it takes a lot to get banned for harassment.
Following you from system to system, real life attacks towards me on the forums, evading blocks by contacting me using alts, creating throw away alts to set up contracts to me.
Seemingly posting in every single thread i posted in, jumping from liking all your posts one day, to contact random people that happened to talk to me in local to ask them questions about you and giving them information about you as a person.
Small comments here and there in random threads that everyone who knows you would know was related to me in a bad way.
Trash talking you in random public channels, sending friends to talk to you on their behalf, contacting corp members and trying to talk down on both your self and your better half.
Reporting your thread using obscure rules that are only applied when and if a thread is reported.
Oh and of course send recruits your way in the hopes that your stupid enough to accept them 
Name calling, yelling at you (over text) and doing their very best to make you feel like one of the worst people that has ever walked on this planet.
Trying to mentally wear you down using both guilt and anger to get to you.
Have someone do that to you for 6 months and they still wont get banned
Your best option, petition and hope maybe they will get a warning, but until the person in question has finally found another victim your better off avoiding posting on the forums, avoiding accepting any convo requests from anyone you dont know (very difficult to do when your a diplomat/recruiter ), leave your home system and move to some obscure system far away with nothing to do for said player and hope they will give up out of boredom, time your login so that you dont log on during their timezone, dont talk in local, or in any public channel said person may or may not know people or have a character in.
The reason for all this? The player in question decided to rage quit the corp and then got pissed when they were not allowed to rejoin. Yep, i asked for it!
Of course nothing of this happened outside of EVE. Not on TS, not on corp forums, not on blogs. Everything was in game.
Maybe thats why its not considered to be serious enough to have any real consequences, but in my own personal opinion, i think 6 months of that should mean a bit more then just sitting in a chat channel with a scammer, or even participate in a scam where the person being scammed is allowed to leave at any moment he or she wishes.
But well, i do hope that CCP had a good reason to ban these people.
Considering how much it takes to actually get banned for harassment they must have done something really really bad
