So when a law abiding citizen becomes a legitimate threat to gangs in the community, the gangs do one of two things. 1) Threaten to kill the whistle blower. or 2) Deface, defame or frame the whistle blower as to destroy his/her credibility.

But in this virtual world, the 1st option is only possible via PGE. So that leaves only the second option.

WTF am I getting at you ask?

Well, my account has been copied with an alt that uses a capital "i" rather than a lower case "l" in the name. Copying a players name so closely is a perma ban offense.

So Jurg, Thrax, Rowdy, Verms, Sam, I'm asking for your assistance in banning the idiot who made the post before this one while trying to impersonate this account.

The Veta/Chase crew -1
DDDY crew +1

Wow. That is interesting.

Have the mods taken action yet?

i dont think creating a fake acct is a permaban offense. the fake acct will be permabanned, but not the creator. the only way to get the creator is if multiple people log into said fake acct. then you can permaban those ppls mains.

altho tbh i disagree with the idea of permabanning ppls mains if they create a joke fake acct of an annoying forum troll.

i dunno, think thats up to br/thrax, theyre the ones who created the manifestos about shared accts and permabanning.

DoubIeDogDareYa (Notice the Capital "Eye") has been put to rest. I will not undo any other mods work but will pass along what I have found. Thanks for playing kthnksbye

Oh and answering your own post with an alt is a dumb way to get crap noticed DDY

Thanks Rowdy for taking action. Just looking for Jurg to do his part.

Also Rowdy, I respect your opinion regarding alt replies.

But it's one way to keep a thread on the radar for the community to see wtf is going on.

Thanks again for your action.

sorry real DDDY, I didn't notice someone(veta) faked your account

my bad for not checking names better but he was a really convincing you :) learned my lesson there

Thanks Jurg for handling the situation. No worries about a ban on this account. I'm not playing this month anyway.

The whole thing is kinda funny though. So banning his shit for a day seems fitting.

I respect what you guys do. But at times modding must seem to you like you are watching a bunch of pre-schoolers who are out of control. And your only line of defense is to say "stop it". What some of these punks need is some real life combat training in order to teach them respect about sportsmanship.

But, conflict is critical in web traffic. Drama = hits. So perma-bans are not always conducive to the site volume. I don't know how much you guys consider this when banning accounts. But it seems like it may play into your thought process.

And btw, if I had that whole Kostur vid, I would have shared it with you. Though I watched the whole game, I only had a small part of the game recorded. (And the game was as f'd up and funneled as games get.) The vid that I have is similar to what was posted.

Peace out
