Let me see if I understand you mrswdk. Here you say if they shared their password they should be banned.

Here you say they shouldn't be banned.

Please make up your mind.

And just for clarity the accounts the accounts weren't hacked. So who is having trouble with the English language

Like, really?

Preventatively guesting people whose accounts have been hijacked is actually the norm.

My guess is these people can get their account restored once they file an e-ticket, verify their identity from their email, and change their password. That has been the norm in account hijacking cases since always.

I can prove that wrong in an instant.

It's nothing I need to share, just saying Duk isn't 100% right on that. To be fair it could be the norm, but one that isn't always followed.

Hacking is gaining unauthorised access. They have him their passwords but they didn't give him those passwords with permission to use them for the purpose of changing their avatars, spamming the fora with his crap, accessing private fora his own account wasn't a member of etc. Therefore he hacked them.

Also he wasn't using khaz's account to take khaz's turns so my original statement doesn't apply in this instance.

Also I take it from the way you decided not to bother addressing my actual point in that second post means that you recognise the ridiculousness of the punishments you've dished out and have therefore decided not to bother entering into a conversation you'll fail to win. Evil Semp forfeits.

perhaps bigwham LLC should post Pauls email/facebook contact info. then, anyone who wanted to voice their displeasure w/his actions could contact him directly. couldn't hurt, could it?

Simple if pallent posted then went ahead and point dumped the accounts you would be all screaming why didnt u protect him. This is what they have done they have guested the account to prevent more games being created your guy then
Verifys its him (why release a account without proof) then changes password and reinstated back to how he was. Simple easy and no drama fuss.

Ok, am I am guilty of giving my wife at the time my bank card with the PIN so she could go get a hair cut with the kids giving me time to play some conquer club--and that ended in divorce very rapidly...

Paul had used my account while I was in the hospital and could not change my password but when I got out and spent almost a week trying to get reinstated. I had great people in the CD group, Captn B, and Otnal from LOTZ. Hopefully his craziness is finally over!!
