What he said. Seriously dude, the point of prison's not just because we really want to harass you. It's to give you an e-time out so you don't end up banned. People do get released if they follow the advice given above. Ok, the rate of banning after that may be pretty high, but normally if people are idiots once they get out they deserve it.
But you seem to be taking it in the way it's meant to be taken. Norcal is actually a decent guy, he just doesn't take shit from anyone. In the meantime, keep your fellow prisoner company and have a good debate or 17
