Framing.

So, I've been thinking about this for some time now, but it's so easy to frame someone for 'hacking/phishing/interest in such things'.
For example take a look at this thread -
http://sythe.org/showthread.php?t=1095800

How do we know that's the same Arcaida on Sythe? So he puts Arcaida's Sythe MSN into his profile and has the same avatar/signature? Should that be enough to justify a ban?
Please post what you think, thanks.

 

Meh it's a tough situation when it comes to framming. I think it's a case to case situation though. Because in all honestly if a newcomer with 2 posts if found with proof like shown they will be banned but if it's a respected member more time will be spent to look into it. If the situation gets really sticky I'm sure sythe has some contacts with other mods on sites that could tell us the ip of the post and then we could confirm its the real person or not.

 

I agree. Its not proof in any way.

 

I don't think it's sufficient proof... I mean, if someone had the name Zezima on two forums, they wouldn't be considered the same person at all

 

Arcaida admits it. It is more than sufficient proof.
