Insluting? I hope that particular Blue won't find this thread then :D

Firebrand9: The community self-moderates (for the most part as we see here). What I'm calling for is a sockpuppet prevention system; verification of each IP that attempts login against that IP having *already* been logged in. If another account from the same IP is detected, the account gets flagged as a sockpuppet. Granted, proxies could allow this to be bypassed, but it'd at least increase the difficulty enough to send these people after lower-hanging fruit. I've seen this implemented on other sites to great effect.

DeathDiciple: It's a problem to people like me on dynamic ISPs, as well as those connecting from public IPs/colleges/from work etc.

I'm not saying they shouldn't do some form of checking, and clearly a person with hundreds of games/transactions can be excluded from sockpuppet checks, just that it could end up with making bigger problem than the one its supposed to solve if not done very carefully. And gog's site updates/management so far doesn't give me too much confidence.
you should write a book about it - have you thought of that?

ciomalau: lmao stupid noob :D you down vote my comment even here even now when i said i got nothing against you tinye. it only shows how much hate you got in your heart. i hope you'll go to He'll :P and plez stay there mkay? it's warm and cozy
He's not the one down voting you. We all are. That's what happens when you act like an ass.
Some gog-moderators just want to see the world burn...
tinyE sent a caution email?! Really?! Echoing other posts, when they're so many scammers, trolls and alts, possibly all being the same person.

This blue needs to look at the origin of these complaints and the complainants. Maybe he'll find that they're all from one person and his alts.

Bad GOG, bad! No treats for you today!

adaliabooks: Actually Konrad's are new community manager. Said so himself in one of the threads (the find the missing blues one possibly?)

Cyraxpt: Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... How the hell did i miss that?? Indeed it's Konrad.

Uhm...

DID I JUST SAY THAT IT WAS KONRAD THAT SENT THAT MESSAGE TO TINYE? WHOOPS...

Wait, he's been community manager for 2 weeks and the first I hear of it is a threat to ban tinye? Who would have thought Ciris would be missed? Ridiculous gog.

Fuck 'em tinye. We'll have to trade emails before long.

cogadh: Um, are you new here or something? This forum hasn't been "best" for years. We've been begging GOG to take a more active role in the community to deal with the scammers, downreppers and basic assholes who have been ruining this place and they have up till now turned a deaf ear. Going after tinyE is almost worse than the nothing they were doing before.
moderation sucks

Leroux: Did anyone create a wishlist entry yet? "Hands off my tinyE" or something? ;)

Fenixp: Yes.
Voted!

I’m not a regular of the "General Discussions" forums even if I can be seen here or there at times, but I read it enough to know that TinyE *is* a crucial part of it.

I sincerely hope all of this is just a misunderstanding.

tinyE: "So, we generally try to keep a super hands-off policy on our forums, but I've gotten a LOT of complaints about insluting/bullying comments from you directed towards other users."
Maybe i missed something but i have never saw you insluting or bullying.

Looks like a new sherif is in town and he wants us to be aware of it....

Anyway, I was already preparing some PM for the new community manager so I guess the TinyEGate will be one more subject to my complaints.

BTW, for those who are bored, you can change your "sig" by putting "#FREETINYE" under your username (like I did). I don't understand those web 2.0 things but I guess it's to publicly show our protest :o)
That would be really bad, do believe nearly everyone would go on strike.
We need some fun when we are not playing games or working;)

Okay I have just been reassured from a higher up that I'm not going anywhere. Sorry ciomalau. :P

I guess we can close this now.

Now I'm off to try to get Abigail to marry me. Her purple hair drives me wild! :P

Thanks everyone. :D
Congratulations, and good luck!
