Banned, I know… just wondering why. I checked ATMB but can’t find the thread.

Thanks!

He was banned for posting under a bunch of sock accounts - I think the full list was **Don’t fight the hypothetical** , **Hombre** , **warmgun** , **darkcool** and **Guy Betty**.

I could swear I started the ATMB thread about this, since I did the bannings and the paperwork, but nothing’s coming up in searches.
