as for myself, i'd have re-enabled him for being a trusted member of SBI.

whenever people agree with me, i always feel i must be wrong.
Hello, I've been banned as well. I did nothing wrong and would like to give the mod the information he requested, but I've also been banned from the IRC channel. It involves my son, who had an account that was disabled. (He later was reinstated with a new account.) I opened Firefox instead of my normal Chrome browser. It automatically popped up my son's old user name up, but I didn't notice and entered my password. When I saw it was the wrong name, I entered my user name and discovered I was disabled. I had an exchange with a mod on the what.cd-disabled room that did not go well. After I talked to my son I tried to go back but discovered that I was also banned from the channel. All I want to do is explain what I now understand happened. Both my son and my self are good What.cd citizens but now we're both banned and have no way to explain. I'm happy to sacrifice my account so my son can keep his. If someone knows a What.CD admin, please pass this on to them!
What I've never understood about the whole "My brother/sister/dad/mother/dog did it" excuse is... why don't you just use one account for the family? Saves the trouble of maintaining ratios on multiple accounts, don't have to worry about the mods scrutinizing you more carefully for having a shared IP address, etc.
The whole "I randomly opened a browser I don't use, didn't notice this and went to What's address, didn't notice that a banned username was in the username box rather than my own, etc." excuse doesn't sound that plausible... plus when you say "reinstated", what does that mean? Generally if they reinstate you they give you your old account back. If he got a new account without asking the staff, then had the IP that was linked to both of your accounts linked to the old banned account, there probably isn't much you can do. They have a 1 account/user/lifetime rule, and they also stipulate that if you share IPs with someone else, you risk being banned if anyone on that IP gets banned.
