- Post subject: The history of multiply banned users
|
Not sure if this is a good idea, but lately three different banned users, pretty sure it's the same person (I'm thinking some sorta fusion of two 21st century Radiohead albums, but I might be wrong), have commented on my chart (my impression is that the person has commented on pretty much anybody else's chart too). I see it as a bit of a problem since my trust in any new member is gradually lowering for every one of these "funny" little happenings. What I hope for with this thread is someone to clear me up on, or just give me an idea of how many earlier banned users (I know there are at least 4 original users) are still revisiting or have been revisiting the site with new accounts (and an approximate number of how many accounts they've made in total also). It's quite annoying to believe someone is someone else and generally I'd just like to be able to welcome every new user without thinking "a Radiohead album AND a Sigur Rós album? Suspicious."!
I hope this thread isn't too rewarding for the troll(s?), but the kind of noise I'm talking about here is getting a bit too much in the way nowadays, I think. _________________ "The Beatles, the greatest band known to mankind." - Bismah Mughal

It's probably not a great idea to have a thread (or threads) dedicated to talking about people who aren't supposed to be here, but who continually create new user names and try to gain attention by posting on the forums and on charts.
I would recommend that if you have concerns about this that you contact either AM or one of the members of the moderator team. I will say that we are doing our best to catch people who do this, but sometimes it may take a bit longer. I would also add that each time one of these people creates a new user name and tries to sneak in, it reduces their chances of ever being reinstated.
Hope that helps! _________________ May we all get to heaven

There are plenty of people with Radiohead and Sigur Ros albums in their charts. I don't think that should arouse suspicion ... _________________ Pipe Dreams is a virus...

At first I was going to agree with you, until I remembered I have a Radiohead and Sigur Ros album on my main chart...

Absolutely right. A lot of work happens in the background to monitor activity & keep the site clean. If anyone has any suspicions about user accounts that may be from previously banned users, please feel free to PM and they will be deleted.
