For what its worth I suggest you refrain from pushing the socks remarks around as it only seems to add fuel to the matter Given that an SPI has been opened and Checkuser denied due to Stale accounts and behaviour evidence alone it serves no purpose to accuse him further just as it serves no purpose for him to accuse you of stalking No one is going to win that type of argument Also I suggest you stop calling cowboy Jake from now on as it also implies that he is someone he claims not to be Clearly he is determined to push his case and the only way to make it go away is that you ignore him altogether Socks are a complex issue as they come in different forms But if you give them enough rope theyll eventually hang themselves with it Challenging suspected socks nonstop is sometimes considered uncivil and may seem like a personal attack without confirmation SPI does not support the claim at present and baiting cowboy will not look good on your behalf whatever the outcome Im sure by rotating IP he probably means proxies It isnt important though Cheers    RFF
