There is no real way to complain about a checkuser's judgement, if you have no arbitration committee. [12:38] <Jeske_Merensky> berm) That usually means your IP matches a sockmaster's last known. [12:38] <Jeske_Merensky> A checkuser block is difficult to challenge. [12:39] <berm> yes [12:39] <Thogo> it would need a re-check by another checkuser. [12:39] <berm> yes [12:39] <Thogo> maybe in a couple of days when someone else is back online.
