Hello, I'm Kratom and I've looked through "evidence" against me.
I can't deny everything looks suspicious. But is somebody guilty in court due to a "suspicion"? So I will explain as best as I can what actually happened.
Sometime last year I lost access to my MSN "[email protected]" (my guess was keylog). When I noticed that, I swiftly made a new one and ensured nobody gets scammed using my old one.
Apparently, an imposter appeared soon afterwards. I had a couple people contact me on my new MSN telling me someone is messaging them pretending to be me and yes it was my old MSN. Seems like they have registered on a few websites too. Besides Bug Abuse, I've seen my name taken on RSBuddy and Powerbot. I'm not sure if it's intentional or not but the MSN address on BA is misspelled, too.
Is it unplausible that all this has nothing to do with me? Probably. Impossible? Not at all. Do you really want to ban long time community members on grounds of something like that? That brings me to my next point.
I would like to take this time to point out a major flaw in this rule. It would really benefit the staff if they took the time to think over what I'm saying.
Take this scenario:
1. Somebody has a grudge against another person (let's call them Anon) on Sythe or something along those lines.
2. They register on another website using their name (Anon) or similar.
3. They specify said person's MSN/email in their forum profile, signature or such. Note - this does NOT require them to have access to said MSN/email.
4. They proceed to scam or post about how they are hacking.
5. According to current Sythe rules, this is grounds for banning Anon from Sythe
Fair? I'll leave that for you to decide.
My last point - I've seen countless times whenever someone is caught "red-handed" they go on to scam as much as they can before being banned. I had a report against me open for 2 weeks. To this day I've never scammed or hacked anyone. And even if there was any proof for that I would gladly refund the person involved. Either way, I've enjoyed my year and a half on Sythe, conducting fair business and helping out members whenever I can, be it on the forums or IRC. If this is it for me, I'll have to take my business elsewhere... My conscience is clean and that's what matters to me.
