The mere fact that Estel is here indicates the IP ban is no longer in effect. Hasn't been for a while now.

As for the other accounts, one simply no longer exists. The user can create another account at their leisure. The other, I believe, was unbanned shortly after, though I may be wrong on that one, having never had moderator privs here.

In any case, any banned person has the right to appeal to Council. We never got an appeal from anyone. And least someone think "what's the point of an appeal", I'll again note, I did not call for the ban(s), nor am I a moderator here. Further, Council at the time was comprised of 4 members. So even if I was some evil nasty dictator, I could have easily been over-ridden.
