But not everyone can photoshop that well and it's pretty much obvious when someone is lying, sometimes people just do it so that they could assure someone is trustworthy.
Best thing is to ask the user's nick at another tracker so you can check it for yourself ;)
nowadays ratio proofs must be given on the date at the point in time, people are asked to S/S their profile instead of just the top banner so its more or less legit as you must personally be logged into the account at the point in time and take the screen shot.
-118.29 ratio?
That picture wont fool anyone, first of all, the numbers of the fake ratio are too close and small compared to the CSS used.
Secondly, a negative ratio is impossible since the amount of downloaded and uploaded GB are both positive quantities.
best thing is def to check on a tracker yourself - IF you have access lol!
Thats why on top of getting ratio proofs you pm them on those respective trackers with questions like "What site am i suppose to be inviting you to". That's what really matters.
