I have only been on this site for a few months now. I was very skeptical at first about starting this GP buying/selling business. I was scammed 2 times off the bat and had my guard up. I began trading with Arashi about a month ago and have made a good 5-10 trades with him. Every time I would go first. This is one person that I KNOW FOR A FACT would never scam me. When I saw he was banned I was absolutely shocked. He told me the story about how he raged immediately after being at a loss of Hundreds of dollars over some freak incident with Paypal. I would freak out too, why not? That's absolutely ridiculous!
I understand that in a world full of perfectionists, he was to have requested a pardon off the bat, but unfortunately he didn't do what a perfect human would do. Even after being banned, he returned to this site to get back to what he loves to do and did a wonderful job at doing what he loves to do. He does what he can to help this community grow (more than anyone else I know). I trust the guy with my life and I met him a month ago. I hope that being an honest person is perfect enough for you to allow him back into the community.
