Received that message after the recent bannings. I work with a friend named *****. I have known ***** for many years. ***** is a good friend of mine. On the internet, ***** goes by the name of "Guess". After ***** got out of the military, ***** got a job working for the local city government. A few months later, ***** told me about an opening. I applied and was hired. We have worked together for about 3 years now. ***** desk is about 5 feet from my desk. We're on the same network, with the same host mask, IP, the whole shebang. There is also another fellow named ****** who works down the hall in Maintenance, and goes by the name Hombre. He's in a similar situation, though I think he cares much less than ***** or I do.
I can see how this would lead to some confusion about evasion or alternate nicks or whatnot. If you would unban me, I would appreciate it. I assure you, I have no interest in trolling your forums or causing trouble. To be honest, I'm not really even that interested in any of the topics of discussion or posting in general. Now and again, however, I do occasionally make a post to keep in touch with many of the old members (particularly with my wedding coming up), whom I have "known" for a long time, and some private messages on occasion. I would also like to send cards out again this Christmas.
I understand that my story may seem hard to believe, so I can take a picture (of our office, or of ***** and I or whatever) on my phone and send it to you if you would like.
Let me know.

Understand that no matter what, Guess is staying banned, so this is more or less deciding Steven's fate.
Here's the other side of it, which is the other "proof":
A. Guess and Steven's IP are identical.
B. Steven began browsing immediately after Guess was banned. (25 seconds to be exact)
So, knowing all that I know now, you all can make a decision. I'll close the poll in 12 hours. If the vote goes in that Steven is not Guess, he will be unbanned. Otherwise, nothing changes.
