You can suggest that the admin send a request to staff for an IP check. If the admin is on the fence about believing you, and IP check might help. Note, however, that you are not entitled to have the admin ask for an IP check. If they refuse to do it, or even talk to you in the first place, then your only option will be to wait 5 years for the ban to expire.
