ex-traders changing name and hiding rep ?

[masterbat]

With all of these bannings going on here & there.... probably they don't want to get caught.

i think there are some trackers that you wont get into no matter how big you trade . maybe they decided to play nice and get those trackers

do they really change the name ?!!
this is the first time i know this
anyway , if somebody checked their profiles they will get caught ( i'm ex-trader )
so there's no point of changing the name

why would someone change their name to hide their rep when there is an option in their user profile to hide their rep?

You can't hide your previous posts and your trading background.

There are a number of people doing this but it will eventually come out making you look like a total ass. You don't need to create another identity to move away from trading. Alas, it's only about getting into those "top levels" for some and speed is of the essence.

I think the answer would be obvious...they want to hide their past and trick people into thinking they are not a scumbag. It's the same reason a number of people post on here with multiple accounts.

are giveaways considered to be trading..? and here i thought i was doing a good thing helping out fellow members

trick people into thinking they are not a scumbag.

I find the term scumbag to be very harsh, there's many people who don't trade that received their invites from people who do trade.

Trading is against tracker rules of course but not all traders are bad guys i'm sure of that

i didn't realize it is that bad..

anyone here knows who i am. my nick is different on different trackers but people know i'm 'danielle' 'bunny' ..... and others. I tell people the connection if I have to. I have a history and it is better then most staff, so I have nothing to fear. Of course telling people i'm a siteop here and an admin there doesn't really happen for obvious reasons.

Well I remember when I put mine away, I did it because I felt I didn't need it anymore. I know this may sound odd but There's a passage in the Bible ( of all things ) that comes to mind

1 Corinthians 13:11
When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things.
