Once I was banned for something I did 2 years before the ban and 9 months after my last post on that particular subject.
But I had a strong team of lawyers who managed to convince Aaron to lift the ban. I'm not sure what was their defense. They either played on the statute of limitation or they played on the card that most of the mods also took part in the criminal activity

Still, those were terrible 2 days in prison. I wasn't even allowed to defend myself with fake accounts.
