Re: Section 3b - User Accounts

c. Imitating another user.
The imitation of other users by creating a user account that is intended to deceive the community into believing you are another member of the community is not permitted.

Consequence:
The offending account will be banned and the offending users other account/s will be given one warning point.


The above pretty much specifies that imitating a user is against the rules. Banned or not, a user is still a user.

Re: Section 3b - User Accounts

Positive criticism of the rules Clarkey.

Yes I'm trying to trip you up, I'm playing Devil's Advocate here. That's pretty obvious. I'm trying to achieve clarity of this rule, that's all. I know that you are not the highest chain of command. Hence why I asked IF that is the official stance. Yes or no would have sufficed as opposed to your aggressive and demeaning outbreak.

Nevertheless, like Haz has said, I will presume this is the order until an Admin overturns that.

Thank you Haz.

Edit: Me causing trouble would have been to break the rule and protest to the ombudsman on the basis of the rule clarity

Re: Section 3b - User Accounts

The search systems inside the phpBB 3 ACP here are fairly lacking, however the regular user search has been somewhat expanded for admins. search by IP is an option. among other things.

This is correct.

A Banned User is still a User, imitating them would be against the rules.
As clarkey said, not all bans last forever. In the case of perma-bans, pardons can be and in the past have been given. Thus imitation even of someone in 'exile' is not allowed.


Thanks SS. No further questions. Can be closed at your convienience.
