I am shocked that ChiBitCTy has been banned! In my personal experiences with him (crypto-related and otherwise), he is a perfectly stand-up guy, and I would trust him and the quality of his posts over many of the people who've never been banned. Please, mods, forgive and reconsider the ban. ChiBitCTy is an asset to the BitcoinTalk community, and losing him would be a sad mistake.

As for the plagiarism, I understand and appreciate the strict rules. I was a professional writer for a few years, and there is nothing I detest more than intentional plagiarism. However, this doesn't seem to be intentional plagiarism, but more of an innocent and (more importantly) forgivable act of accidental source omission.

Please reconsider, mods. It would be unfortunate to see a respected BitcoinTalk Member such as ChiBitCTy no longer contributing to our wonderful (and forgiving?) community.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, mods, and for reconsidering the banishment.

Sincerely,
Chris
