Thread: Will tracker "staffs" ever grow up? I don't think so.

    Not wanting traders on your site is sound and absolutely legitimate, not least of all for security reasons.

    Everything is legitimate until the process of 'legitimizing' gets broke.

    I would be fascinated to know how stopping an account from passing from one anonymous person to another aids in security.

    Have you ever met a career security guard?

    Somebody's got to do the job of keeping a-holes off of sites for the good of the general user. Unfortunately, sometimes the biggest ones find their way into staff positions. Coincidentally, these same jerks often find themselves in real-life roles of security guard, border patrol, and middle management.

    Will spare the blushes of the person involved but I was recently banned from a tracker for being invited by a trader. What made it funny, but sad for their quality of 'intel', is that it was the mod I was talking to who invited me to the site.

    That may be true now, but I remember around 5 or 6 years ago or longer, many tracker staff thought it was suspicious if you used different usernames on different trackers. And you definitely couldn't use a tracker nick on a board like this. Probably still not a good idea. I remember being questioned in some interview channel years ago, about my username being different on 2 different trackers.
    I also remember more than one tracker that suposedly would ban you just for being a member here, or at any forum that allowed open invite giveaways or trading. Always thought that was BS too.

    No drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we're looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn't test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power. — P.J. O'Rourke

    Sin lies only in hurting others unnecessarily. All other "sins" are invented nonsense. — Robert A. Heinlein (1907-1988)

    I assume.
    IP addresses are trendy too. If you're from India, Egypt or Israel you get double points
