James Forrester, I don't know the history- why shouldn't I vote for him? Options

Please could tell me something about the past of jpgordon on wiki, what has he done over the years which you disapprove of? Anything in particular? I mean in the past. I know what he's been upto in the last couple of weeks, and have found that for an arb, he has personality.

Josh was the arbitrator who proposed the fraudulent alternative motion in my ArbCom appeal last February, which ended up passing by one vote; as a result of his motion, I'm stuck under a litany of restrictions right up to the present day. I say Josh's motion was fraudulent because he crafted the motion so that it appeared to lifting a bunch of restrictions, while leaving a few in place--but in fact, the restrictions that he proposed to "lift" had already been automatically lifted several months earlier due to expiration dates on those restrictions. By including the expired sanctions in his motion, he made it appeared fair and reasonable, as if I were being granted a bunch of concessions--when in fact I wasn't granted a damn thing. In fact, Josh's motion actually increased the severity of my sanctions by sneaking in one new restriction, which permitted me to appeal my restrictions only once per year. It was a disgraceful trick, and of all the departing arbitrators, I think his departure will be most beneficial.
