    I think they invented the stuff about IRL harassment because they
    would look silly banning me just for supposed 'trolling'. (I was NOT
    'trolling').<br>
    <br>
    There is CCTV in the space, so we can determine very easily if I was
    'following' people around. They refuse to give any details about
    what the CCTV shows.<br>
    They refuse to give any details about the nature of the real life
    harassment. I can provide many witnesses that spent time with me day
