BTP is full of ghosts

and this just proves every contest should be for FUNDED ACCOUNTS ONLY and points for that matter.

This is a great thread that all who conspire to scam SBR points system should read.

It is hilarious that someone would be so desperate for points that they would spend an hour a day logging in 15 accounts and pasting posts just to gain a few SBR points only to get outed by the community and find out that they have wasted many hours of their life for nothing.

Yeah this is why many posters lobbied to have separate pots for cash funded accounts and points accounts. Cash funded accounts are penalized from fraudulent activity beyond their control.

At this rate SBR will only reward SBR Pros with daily points, contests, and giveaways. Let the non-pros post and read all they want. If someone really wants to go make 10 fake accounts, at least if they are funded SBR gets something out of it.

Thanks for the cheers and for the points!

Lou, thank you for taking the charge and working on this. Here is another thread with copied messages that you can use to weed out a few more ghosts: http://forum.sbrforum.com/politics-e...ns-ground.html. Yes, that is the thread you already looked at when I pointed it out earlier. However, we did not know that a number of messages were copied from http://www.politicsforum.org/forum/v...123675&start=0. Also, alanspoil is still on while he is the poster whom number of banned ghosts transferred points to.

While I am not on BTP but I believe in fairness. I agree with shari91, in all fairness, the ghost-master deserves only F.

I also sent Lou a PM. Lou has not replied neither here nor to PM.

I see that about a dozen accounts has been removed from BTP. However, at least another dozen ghost accounts are still there. These accounts are no different from the removed ones, they all copied and pasted messages from another forums. These accounts can be found in the thread I referred to in my previous post and in this yet another thread: http://forum.sbrforum.com/politics-e...pe-foiled.html. The messages in this thread have been copied from http://www.debatepolitics.com/europe...pe-foiled.html.

Why SBR is so tolerant to these uncovered ghosts is strange and baffling.

I see that dozens of ghost accounts stopped posting on 10.10.10. Those accounts are not showing as banned though. Great job SBR on pumping up the membership numbers, way to impress the sponsors.

Also, I see that many of profound ghost accounts, that have messages posted in copy-n-paste threads from the other forums, are still active. No comments on this, I just report the news.

Data is like the eye in the sky.

Great job exposing the scam.
