Double Standards Part II

[Magic Arrow]

From Double Standards Part I

Before you attack me, this thread is not to cause drama.

Now usually, when a staff member's msn scams a member, regardless whether it was or wasn't in his control, that staff member was banned until the funds had been paid back. So today, when Tyro's msn scammed Drewskyd I was surprised that Tyro wasn't banned on precaution and forced to pay back those who were scammed before being unbanned. Now, I have nothing againt Tyro, I consider him a good friend and I've known him a considerable amount of time, but I think that since Sythe likes to keep "standards", why is Tyro allowed to casually roam the site WITH full moderator abilities.


Just to give an idea of what I mean.
Decisive - Banned on request because he feared he would be hacked. Nothing was scammed. Unbanned, but moderator permissions not re-instated.

Solid Tank - Hacked, but nothing was scammed. Banned on precaution. Unbanned, but moderator permissions not re-instated.

Chase - Hacked and his msn was used to scam. Banned. Forced to repay funds before being unbanned.

Rawr Im Phat - Banned after reports of his msn being used in a scam. Asked to repay those scammed before being unbanned. Report turns out to be false, and Rawr is unbanned without paying a cent.

In all these cases the staff member was banned on precaution, regardless of being in control of their msn or not. So why does Tyro get special treatment? You're using the excuse "we're investigating the report" which is bullshit, because the report is valid. It is merely an excuse to bide time until a) Drewskyd recovers the accounts and Tyro is let off scot free or b) Tyro has the money (which I know right now he doesn't). Be fair, keep standards. Ban him until he repays or until Drewskyd recovers without loss.

So Skele, you haven't answered my question. The report was posted so why isn't Tyro banned? Oh that's right, you have to make sure the report is legitimate. How come I don't get a whole thread discussing the legitimatacy of a report against me or any other trusted and well-known member of the community. The fact that the report is full of pictures, well layed out and by a well-known member of the Sythe community would've been enough for me to at least issue a precautionary ban. Just admit it, you guys don't want Tyro to look bad. Don't lock the threads, we have a right to discuss it and by locking it you're only proving my point.

Bottom line is Tyro's msn scammed. Do the proper thing.

Thank-you Magic Arrow for speaking up!

I support this 110%, Tyro msn was hack and he scam 2 runescape account(almost $200)

The screen shoots is proof that the guy got scammed, so Tyro should be banned into he pay back what needed to get unbanned.

If we think a scam report may be fraudulent, it will be discussed in the staff lounge until a decision has been made. The report is still being discussed and no decision has been made yet (report is still open). If a regular member were to have his msn compromised but had no scam reports against the hacked msn, they would receive the same treatment and would be unbanned. If the report is deemed legitimate, Tyro will pay back what is scammed or will be banned like any other member. If we rule that the report was fake, Drew will most likely be banned.

this is bull-shit and you know it, the proof is 100% real but they don't want to ban tyro

I seen other dispute like this and when they got the proof in, the sythe account get banned into they pay back what needed to get unban...

I suppport ban tyro because everyone knows th screen shots was real

 

[wombakage]

Drew isn't friends with Brandon or Harped. Syed alone can't handle this.'sorry tyro, it seems you may have to pay up. It's obvious that y'all are stalling right now

 

[Magic Arrow]

I'll take you for what you're saying, how long will this "discussing" take.

Reports can easily be faked. A recent example would be Finn; if we had deemed it legitimate without a proper investigation, one of our best admins would've been demoted.

Post on marrows thread saying how I was banned when my Msn got hacked and they scammed people. If you get hacked and they scam someone, bottom line is they get banned until refund.

Then he would've been re-instated a couple of days later. I don't see what's so hard about that.

Tyro has already manned up and said if its legit he will pay drew back.


You used to not be bad but lately it seems as though you can't make it 10 minutes on this site without finding something wrong with nothing. I put you in the same category as shall skill and womba.

 

[Matt Hasty]

I got scammed by tyro's msn but didn't have time to make a report. Only reason I got scammed was because sythe was down and I couldn't read the announcement my own stupidity.

You don't see the big picture. It's not about Tyro's credentials, it's about Tyro getting the same punishment as everyone else who has the same thing happen to him.

@Matt Hasty
I'm somehow struggling to believe you.

I messaged skele_master as soon as it happened on MSN, but he just replied "-.-" and I thought it was my fault so I wouldn't have posted the proof either if I didn't see this thread.

Sorry but I lol'd at that.

On a serious note, go post in the report a scammer section.

 

[Crazeywolfx]

Chriscross23's msn scammed me $10, and all I got was a "GL on Dispute".
Meh, It will probably get accepted anyway.

The whole community is watching this very close to see how the admins treat this case. Better to do what is right, then to show favoritism. If that is the case, no admin will be trusted, and this site will be done. We will be watching the investigation closely.

I also find this extremely funny.

You act like they are corrupt atm...

 

[Styles]

No, that was not the intent, rather this is important to the community to see how the admins react in this case. It just seems that others get banned asap, and have to wait a long time to get it straightened out, just saying people need to be able to trust the admins.

Maybe 'standards' are changing?
Administrator's decisions are final, let them do their job.
