Duplicate Accounts

[CoventryCat86]

The reason the trust is broken is because nobody but the person using duplicate accounts knows who they are or the reasons they are doing it. This has nothing to do with Sid starting rumors, Hex was the one who brought all of this to light by saying that there were a few people with duplicate accounts. Hex then stated that there was someone who was still using duplicate accounts. The board has a right to know who this is. It is lying the same way that me giving you a call on the phone and pretending to be someone else would be lying.

Noun 1. lying - the deliberate act of deviating from the truth.

Lie: To utter falsehood with an intention to deceive; to say or do that which is intended to deceive another, when he a right to know the truth, or when morality requires a just representation.

If you are on this forum pretending to be someone you are not you are lying. If you lie you have then broken a trust. If every member knew that the duplicate account was had, like over at the other board you are active on, then that would be all well and good but that is not the case here. I'm fairly certain you are a member of the minority with your opinion on this one Bill, however you are entitled to your opinion, this is though supposed to be a member moderated board and the members seem to have spoken about wanting to know you has duplicate accounts and what those accounts are.

I still don't see how any "trust" is broken.By the way, you didn't answer my two questions which were:

Does this mean you don't "trust" me anymore Nate?
Does this mean you won't participate in a trade or a pass with me?

Yes, then he backed off of that statement with this:

Here is what I know: I found several duplicate accounts with matching IP addresses. Some of them were obviously accidental signups, no extra posts, no problem. I found a couple of iffy duplicates, but after looking closer at them, they haven’t been used in a while.

I did find 2 senior members with what appears to be blatant duplicate account usage. IP’s match, posting habits’ continued until very recently, etc. I contacted one of those members and got an explanation, the other one I’m trying to catch in the act (not enough concrete evidence). The person I did contact offered an explanation which I considered plausible. If he wants to come out and say something, he can.

Notice the "what appears" part of his statement? That definitely is NOT what you said that I highlighted in green above.

I disagree Hex has this policy:

PM me and we can handle the matter with out the drama.

and he's sticking to it. I don't have a problem with that, do you?

I'm confused by this statement because some people on the other board know about it while others don't and once again, I don't see any harm or betrayal by that person posting with duplicate accounts.

"you" or "who"
