That sounds like it was a good call then. I appreciate the effort you put into the investigation etc, and that you commented instead of downvoted.
I tend to not like downvotes. I don't see how mass adoption can happen with the present system where there's no protection or recourse for 'bad' downvoting against one's account by someone(s) with more clout (know a great author with $100+ articles and 65ish rep whose account got wiped out by one guy with a ton of SP).
