I know there's a lot of drama surrounding this ban appeal, and I'm not going to deny that what naim027 did looks suspicious beyond all doubt.  He reminds me in a way of mdayonliner (and a couple others whose names I've long since forgotten), who was here trying to build a reputation quickly and trying to bond with long-time members for whatever purpose.  But for some reason I don't think naim027 came here to scam anyone, and I also think if his ban were to be lifted he most likely wouldn't plagiarize again.  One would have to be an outright moron to do that after being caught doing it and then put under the microscope like naim027 was.

He might well have been here to earn some money through sig campaigns, but in my interactions with him he went above and beyond what a typical sig campaign shitposter would do--and I'm referring to the Midas USB thing I referenced earlier in this thread.  My vote is still for Theymos to give him a second chance, for whatever that's worth.  He knows he fucked up, even if he's being defensive about it

Just my $0.02 in favor of lifting his ban.
