[11:00] Michael Josem: lolol
[11:00] ron: no
[11:00] ron: my account is suspended.
[11:00] Michael Josem: both of them?

[11:02] ron: ?
[11:02] Michael Josem: i see
[11:02] Michael Josem: that's you
[11:02] ron: pardon
[11:02] Michael Josem: now i get it
[11:02] Michael Josem: never mind
[11:03] ron: yea well anyhow if your intersted in getting a rakeback deal i can help you out "dependant on some info"

I have permabanned Melchiades and welcome2theparty as I see this to be totally unacceptable on a number of levels.

I would ask that strikeaa's tempban be made a permaban, too, in light of the above new information.
