After several attempts at causing trouble at this site, I think it is time to take the decision to solve this once and for all. The related 12 pages evidences on the identification process of the individual, all the rules which have been violated as well as the sum of all complaints we have received will be archived in case we need to open them up in the future.

>>>Based on your actions, you are claiming it was Kevin who was Grover. I really cannot believe that. I do not believe he would risk his professional integrity and MVP status on such nonsense. I think perhaps someone has the ability to spoof ips or something and may take target at someone else in the future now that they have been successful in this endeavor. If it were Kevin, he would have owned up to it and made the public apology but I do not believe he would have done it in the first place. Fake ids is something he is totally against and considers it cowardice. He has posted that publicly himself in the past.

Nasty ;-)

The person you are referring, did not break any rules in this site and that person was banned from the other site, and also I don't think is fair to mix the two cases, just my two cents.
