well, theburningcat, i'd like to address that if i may.
i have been running a charity effort for disabled/needy military veterans, collecting parts and building PCs', then giving them to any vet who can demonstrate a need. no strings, no money, just a healthy activity that has blossomed into quite an endeavor.

i entered into an online trade, the first and only one, which i kinda screwed up, but rectified. i wanted a larger drive for personal use, and while i could've used a donated drive, with no-one the wiser, i chose not to. i don't use aliases or try to hide my identity in any way, and i don't intend to enter into any more trades.
my charity project has become very important to me and its' recipients, and i needed to clear my name in order to reduce the effect the alert has had on my project (the response to my efforts on this board all but died after the alert).
my project is completely legit, and growing weekly, with many exciting prospects. i want very much for that to continue, as it obviously has in other venues, but a troll alert gets around (for good reason) and i had to quash it. i feel "troll" means some form of intent to defraud, and fraud was the furthest thing from my mind.
i made a mistake, one which i am sorry for and that i rectified. please don't let that effect the help i give to others.
socalgal, thank you very much.
