This ban is a little unexpected to say the least. I've had thousands of dollars in trades completed successfully (including LEGIT trades with FretsOnFireGh2, with PROOF OF COMPLETION) and I feel as though I've contributed quite a bit to this community both through the content of my posts, my activity, and my contribution (even though it's somewhat small compared to some users) to the market section.
I'm not asking you to change the rules or whatever, I fully acknowledge that I broke it by vouching with a real life friend, but these vouches were all legit. We've had members get off with literally SELF VOUCHING. Making new accounts with the sole purpose of vouching for their own self. I don't see how this is fair, how members can get away with such thing while I'm being permanently banned for having a legit trade with another person, although I know him in real life.
FireZ seems to think that we have the same IP.. when we don't. He's my real life best friend, who lives maybe 10-15 minutes away. We hang out. We browse Sythe from each other's computer. I probably had at least 3 IPs on my account (mine, which I am posting from currently, my girlfriend's, and FretsOnFireGh2's) but that doesn't mean I'm sharing accounts.. the same can be said about the "fake" vouches.
I don't really have anything else to say except that if the ban isn't lifted, I have no intention of coming back after seeing some of the poorest staff decisions (picking favorites, unbanning friends but not others under the same, or better circumstances) on any forum I've ever been to. If it is lifted, I promise to remove all of FretsOnFireGh2's vouches, and make it known somewhere that he is my real life friend. I know FretsOnFireGh2's pardon request has been denied, but should my request be accepted (doubtful of it) I think his ban should be reversed as well, under the same conditions of course.
