Report/post/reason that got you banned:
Scammed on Powerbot back in 2014. Report can be found here.
Proof of contacting victims for repayment or repayment of victims:
Victims were all repaid before my original pardon. Proof in this post.
Anything you weren't banned for but want to confess to now:
In terms of debt, nope. I admitted to additional victims and paid more than I was required to in my original pardon.
OT: I was recently banned on Powerbot for evading my TWC - this was unintentional and has since been resolved. The appeal can be found here. @Gen said I should include this.
Detailed description of the events that took place and why you think we should forgive you:
The scam back then wasn't solely for monetary gain - the amount I took wouldn't have changed anything unless I was literally homeless. At the time I wanted to force myself away from RS and essentially everything online as I didn't have the self-control to just do it out of my own will. I figured scamming would be a way to do that and just took from a few people I had trades lined up with at the time. I then decided to come back later without pardoning, which is where the 'Naaaath' account came from - this was mentioned in the Powerbot appeal I submitted but, as you can see from the screenshots, I was caught relatively quickly and didn't even complete a single trade, never mind scam. I then left things for a while and decided to come back. With the knowledge that I'd previously been banned and had made mistakes like keeping the same Skype etc, I started operating under 'Kreaated' and also made a Sythe account to start offering services here. It went from there and until Wortel caught me I was operating just fine with what had happened previously way behind me. I honestly thought that due to how long it had been, as well as the insignificant amount it was, things would be fine and it was less a case of trying my best to escape the past and serially ban evade; incredibly stupid of me in hindsight.
Why should you forgive me? I'm not quite sure where to start or how to structure this part, but I can list the general/'go-to' things that I'd say make a case for myself:

- Until DNT'd, I operated for just short of 2 years on Sythe, gaining 440+ vouches and managing to receive not one VALID scam report. My crimes here go as far as a single infraction for excessive bumping.
- I have donated $200 back into the site, co-sponsored CDT events and helped to anti-scam & pay back a decent handful of people.
- Created multiple guides to help people stay safe when operating and trading on Sythe, showing the good of the community really is at my heart.
- Used to be on the CDT/PR teams, helping to bring in new members and then engage/entertain existing members.
- Facilitated the safe-trading of thousands of dollars worth of goods via my middleman service.
- Reported 30+ ban evaders, trying to keep the site safe (I guess there's some irony there now).
- I think it's fair to say that I've built up a lot of relationships here - I interact with just about everyone & anyone daily and I don't think it'd be ridiculous to say I'm a 'regular' on Sythe.
