Voted option 3 since scores and community are, to me, unrelated.

If nothing else, then a score reset would probably be the safest option. Even better, this should be undoable, in case it turns out that the player wasn't cheating. If a player cheats, then a simple score reset would enable them to stay in touch with the community.
D33d's #1 personal mapping rule: Use common sense. If something can not be justified with this, with the only reason being, "I'm being creative," then you are fabricating a bullshit-shaped house of cards on the San Andreas Fault.

The only good it might do to let them talk on their existing account is if it stops them from creating multiaccounts and cheating again. It might be worth a try as an experiment to see if this is the case, but I doubt. Gameplay, cosmetic, remark, badly applied mods, ranking guidelines.

You can cheat once then feel guilty and/or stupid about it and decide to redeem yourself by actively participating in the community, in my opinion. Granted, that's a rare case, but I think people who just want to cheat would leave by their own once they see that their scores have been reseted and that they can't submit new ones anymore.
It would also raise the problem of double accounts, but the other options don't fare better against this issue, so... I still think it's the best option because we do give kind of a second chance to the cheater (being able to enjoy the chat, forums and whatnot) without being too lenient and actually encourage cheating rather than dissuading it. |

When I was younger, hacking an online video game was something that crossed my mind. I never did but I did do exploits that were border line. At this time, I now have ethics that prevent me from ever doing such a thing. My point is this game and young user base has those who haven't nailed down a sense of ethics. And concerning the cheaters, after giving them some time to think about their actions, a second chance would probably be best after the ban really informs them of the harsh consequences of cheating. But, for the osu! community at large, a permanent ban is best. You do work on the site and the game. Taking attention off of these single persons who might not learn from their ban, which as you state is highly the case, would give you more time to serve the community as a whole. Putting the needs of the many over the few, Lesser of two evils, etc.
Perm ban. |

Once again, please do not use this thread to plead individual cases. There are other, known ways to do that.
So I told the police: "Look, I know the DRILL. But don't BRACE yourselves just because I'm a dentist; I won't get on your NERVES, or BRUSH you off. I have FILLINGS too, you know. I CARIES for everyone and tell nothing but the TOOTH. That's why I'm the CROWN prince of dentists. I even received a PLAQUE for it. DENTURE wish your dentist was cool like me?". But they didn't buy it, so they performed a CAVITY search to EXTRACT a confession...
