The user "STAUNCH_POWER" may very well have a puppet account named "cumball".
The image has been re-sized for convenience, if you need to see the full size I can host that as well.
Ignoring the fact that the thread this was posted in wasn't even his first thread hijack of the week, he's shown in the two posts visible that he likely uses an alternate account, whatever the intention of that may be, which is a bannable offense.
The IPs of the accounts may not match considering STAUNCH_POWER probably uses a VPN, but if you examine the content of the posts it's apparent that there is reason to be suspicious.
As you can see, this post was made three minutes before the post made by STAUNCH_POWER, yet "cumball" is agreeing with the currently nonexistent post by STAUNCH_POWER below, not mine.
Both individuals appear to be very like-minded in the opinions they share and seem to have misunderstood my post in the exact same way. In my post, I inform "STAUNCH_POWER" that the CD-key scans he sells for games such as call of duty for example, are more expensive than the game is itself on Steam. One would think this is a relatively simple point not worded in confusing English, yet both posters seem to have instead come to the ridiculous conclusion that I have moral difficulties buying games on a forum. This straw-man is devoid of any sense and isn't a conclusion someone would normally draw if they understood what I wrote, yet both of them managed to misinterpret my post in a seemingly identical way.
Additionally, they both use the verb 'created' incorrectly in their posts, as if they understand what each other is saying perfectly, despite the gratuitous grammatical errors in both posts.
Not only has STAUNCH_POWER shamelessly hijacked the threads of multiple sellers this week to advance his own interests, an ironic state of affairs considering he wrote on his sock that "everyone should mind their own business" twice in the aforementioned thread, he also appears to have multiple accounts, which is an obvious breach of the rules. This is again ironic considering STAUNCH_POWER frequently informs other users in the Steam Account Sales section that they aren't following the section rules to a T, sometimes going so far, as visible in the quote, as to tell others to "post PoPs" of their account, a request that is not taken from any rule. Why he asks individuals to post information tied to their account out in the open that could potentially be used to steal the account is not something I've figured out.
Thanks for reading and I apologize if this is in the wrong section, this is my first report.
