Voted absolutely no, he shouldn't have been perm banned.
Trying to justify either side in the events that led to this whole thing (the abyss etc) is fruitless, not only because of what was said about the battlegrounds being PK-intended, but also because it takes two to tango. Also, stuff like this happens all the time. Handle every separate situation ingame in the same way, and you will end up banning like half the population, if not more.
Having said that, my opinion on this remains the same: don't aim to achieve a robot-like system that SEEKS out words in the chat and then bans the person in whose chat line the word is in. Handle each case as separate, look at the context. Pulling the "any kind of second chance is showing we allow it" is unjustified in my opinion because you're NOT allowing it, what you are allowing is room for human error. Same thing happens after being warned, OR if the first offense is blatantly clear abuse, (meaning there can be no room for speculation that the offender had any other reason to do it than just for the sake of harassment) then go for it, let the banhammer swing.
