2 holes in your analysis:
1) Why am I responsible for the proximity of Flower's IP? I'm not the guy, I don't know the guy and I have clarified that.
2) Why was nothing done with Gavinmad? Apparently you can break rules and get away with it, or NOT break rules and get punished, based entirely on whether you're in the "ol' boys' club".
I mean, is your point: "Yeah, but you already know you're not in the 'ol' boys' club', you already know people are going to assume you're lying even though you've never lied and have no reason to, so just accept it"? It really seems like that's what you're saying.
