About this..... Keep in mind the sheer number of errors made by the people who "investigated me."

1)TantaYum was not a sockpupper. I never made a single edit with it. It was a typo for TantraYum. Verdict of the investigative committee: It was a sockpuppet that I had abused. 2)Devalover was LEGITIMATE sockpuppet. I used it soley for editing prostitution and sex worker related topics- which according to the sockpuppet guidelines, IS ALLOWED> Verdict of the investigative committee: It was a sockpuppet that I had abused. 3)TantraYum, minus ONE accidental comment on a talk page (meaning I posted as Sethie and then accidentally as TantraYum) engaged in NO sockpuppetry. The two accounts were not active on the same page at the same time (or within MONTHS) of each other. Verdict of the investigative committee: It was a sockpuppet that I had abused. 4)I created TantraYum to protect my privacy, Sethie reveals my given name. 5) As TantraYum I did 97% RC patrol, aka patrolling for vandalism- with a little contribution to pages I had edited as Sethie months or YEARS ago. 6) I was accused of being yet another sockpuppet by this committee, which at last they admitted they were wrong about. 7) All I was interested in doing was protecting my privacy. 8) If anyone had ASKED, I would have told them all of this, instead, they started an adversarial investigation.

While I honor that they were trying to protect wikipedia... a beautiful need and wish, their strategy for doing so sucked and was erronious on multiple levels (see above).

The facts speak for themselves.... as do the diminishing number of editors on wikipedia, ala instances like this.
