Hey guys,

After reviewing everything that’s been said, I’d say m0x’s current ban is fair game.

It’s not what you could call a case of “guilty until proven innocent.” I’d say there’s compelling enough evidence that he went out of his way to harbum a Forumwarz user — yes, offline — thereby exposing himself as the kind of user we would rather not have in our community.

His initial offense of posting personal information was bad enough and probably warranted a permaban right then and there. The fact that he appeared to follow up on it is even more offensive.

He claims he didn’t do it. He says other users can vouch for him. And other users have stepped up and spuriously claimed to “know” someone else did it. So if any such evidence comes to the forefront, we can certainly revisit this. If m0x wants to pull an OJ Simpson and track down the real It-Poster, he’s free to do so. However, the mods and I all currently agree that the ban ought to stand.

Thank you for your feedback and continued interest in this matter.
