(Bad choice of wording at first, I modified the wording to be more clear and precise).
I need to make this public. I've waited about 6 or so hours and only told @wegra, but since everyone is going to begin asking questions eventually, I figured I should just say this now.
DamnedByFate is effectively banned for good. 10 years to be specific. I asked the tom about the status of his ban, and he told me the ban was extended. I asked further and he told me how long it was:

I ask you please, do not harass any moderator who might have been involved and do not harass the tom. I am just saying here what would have been made public eventually, because people will begin to openly question sooner or later.
I also want to ping
and @thejayjay
because they were chatting with DbF in his new post and might want to know. I don't know if the ban included IP blockage or anything of the sort, so I'm not going to make speculation with no evidence.
