Check if these are alts and ban them all

now a ranger

Check Ready Salted (New York) and Dueling Gods (Little Italy).

TIA

[mith]

I've deactivated them for the moment. Would someone please inform the mods of any games that "now a ranger" is in?

[klebian]

Now a ranger is definitely not an alt.
Edit: Dang, I was in the middle of making a post at realizing what she meant. Yeah, that's possible.

[jeep]

I think the comment is that those three are really the same person. mith is taking care of it, I assume.

What's an alt? A smurf?

[JDodge]

Alt = Alternate accounts

[jeep]

We have no ban on people having multiple accounts. The only time it's a problem is when people try to abuse them to cheat. Like having two roles in a single game or using alts to get around the rules of number of games, etc...

[Glork]

using alts to get around the rules of number of games, etc...

...which he

did

do. He also used the alts to deliberately sabotage games, and NAR himself screwed with a few wiki pages (which I found and mith and I reverted).

I think the deactivation was probably a good call. *shrug*

[jeep]

That's for mith to deal with... unless he asks for help. I don't think it's very valuable to discuss this without all the details.

I am currently playing a game that featured

Now a Ranger

. I know it is against the rules for me to comment on games while they are open, but I beg others to read that thread and decide if his actions were appropriate.

If he isn't a sock/alt I feel his IP should still be logged, and if necessary, action should be taken against him.

Ban the shit out of this kid. He ruined Dueling Gods. He must burn.

[ShadowLurker]

If you see any account with these names, they're definitely alts of NAR: now a ranger, cokebottle, Alex Chen, Spectacular, Justing Jong, Purple Plume, Go Around the Tree, Alexpochen

[klebian]

To be clear, those are definite alts of nar on a different forum that the 3 of us frequent.

[Yosarian2]

Has he definatly been in the same game with more then one name?

[Cogito Ergo Sum]

No. He just used those alts to break rules in other games.

[Ghyrt]

Um..... now a ranger is in the game I'm modding. What should I do?

Get a replacement.

[Yosarian2]

NAR is back, and playing in games again. Was it decided he's not banned? What's going on?

[Thestatusquo]

I noticed that.

It's at mith's discretion and he's chosen to let him return -- don't worry, he's keeping an eye on the situation.

[Yosarian2]

Ok, good to know. FWIW, in the games I'm in with him, he's seemed to be playing pretty much streight.

[ChannelDelibird]

I'm still replacing him anyway.

(If anybody wants to fill that slot, please PM me.)

[Mr Stoofer]

After all of the above:

NVM.


I don't know how to edit my earlier 3 hours-ago message, so please don't put me on a list for a future newbie game.

Maybe this means that he is not coming back after all.

[Thestatusquo]

No, he's already in games.

[IH]

Maybe he's on a probationary status, and can't play in to many games at once?
