Should the member with 4 usernames get id'd publicly?

Post by flagg07 »

Over the last few weeks it has come to light that a person joined the B-town community and has continued to break the posted rules. His accounts have been suspended, but it's safe to say that he will be back with a new name shortly, if not already.

This user opened a thread on Dakka, essentially whining that the B-town mods had been mean. He stated that he had atleast 4 different accounts and B-town mods shed light on the situation, pointing out other rules he had broken, icluding using 2 of those accounts to give himself good feedback. Great job there guys.

He doesn't rate a bad trader report because he hasn't actually "taken" anyone. Is there something else the admins can do to secure the community vs. this guy? Maybe a trader beware stickey with personal info?

This guy has been taken care of for now. The following accounts are the same person and have been banned. Please be careful when trading with new members in the Seattle, Newcastle or Bellevue, WA areas. I also want to thank you personally flagg for pointing out this mess originally with the dual accounts and helping me follow through on this ordeal.

I would say yes ONLY to protect traders from WA. I know I won;t trade with anyone from WA w/o this guy's personal info over the next few weeks, so it might be a good idea to 'out' them.
Trading Guidelines:
1. Lower rating ships first - even if I am purchasing.
2. If you agree to buy something, you have 72hrs. in which to pay. If payment is not received in 72hrs., I will automatically post a Non-Payment/Backout thread.
3. Refs are left upon positive receipt of goods, NEVER beforehand!
4. I accept Paypal & USPS money orders and charge for shipping AT COST. I make no profit from it.
5. I trade NIB/new models at retail.
