Thank you The concept of forum shopping it completely nonsensical ArbCom rules say you must have taken other steps first If you take these steps first it is not forum shopping I considered going to ArbCom initially and deemed I had not yet suitably addressed the case As for the analogy I feel this is much more akin to accusing a police officer of corruption watching his fellow officers back him up while criticizing the accuser s careful adherence to the law and then going on to the District Attorney or whatever
