I am posting on behalf of my nephew (rguitar87) who I have know now for over 20 years...recently, he was banned from your website because you believed his photo, and a mistake he had made when submitting information, indicated that he was, in actuality, 17. He does appear to be quite young, however, he is indeed 20 years old and will be 21 as of this coming January.

I am taking this time to do all I can to straighten this out as he very much enjoys posting here and should be entitled to. He is 20 years old, graduated high school in '05, and is a respected local musician who plays out regularly at clubs that wouldn't allow him to were he actually underage...please refer to his band's webpage on my space for additional confirmation.

MySpace.com - Ryan Hickey Band - Cincinnati, Ohio - Blues / Rock / Psychedelic - www.myspace.com/ryanhickeymusic

Would a scan of his driver's license provide sufficient proof?

I do understand your need to be careful, but I assure you, no one is attempting a snow job here. If there is anything I can do to further substantiate the truth, please don't hesitate to contact me from my profile email.

Thank you!

well i was hesitant to believe it... but if 87 (which it probably is) is his birth year (since so many use that in their names) it does check out....

Shit that fukin bad is sick Aye. never herd of em but Im gonna look out for em now. Nice guitar for a sec I was like daaaamn.

I'm the one that sent him to Club Gitmo.........his birthdate doesn't match his age posted in the profile so how is it that ol' boy can't match his date of birth to how old he is? He'll be returning in a year hopefully with a better attitude also.

Have a good one!:jointsmile:

As Psycho4Bud said, I wasn't the one who banned that user.
I know why you got that impression; he violated the VERY VERY basic rule of growing: Don't grow in your parents' house without their permission, DUH, and I called him out on it.
If you are indeed his uncle, then I assume you will sympathize with your brother or sister who is his parent- Age aside, rguitar87 has some serious growing up to do.

Thanks Stinky.....just another example of why I did what I did. It was the same thing in other threads.

I do find it funny that an uncle would make an account and do this though.......smells a bit fishy to me. I guess time will tell huh?
