Admin Abuse

Before we start I’d first like to apologise for some of the language in this post.
This is an insight into what we have to deal with from time to time, yes the username is there for all to see for a couple of reasons.
We are releasing the username in the hope that if this manager is know by anyone, and he circumnavigates his way around the LIFETIME ban we have enforced, he would be reported straight away.
There is no room in our game for cheats, and anyone cheating will be caught sooner or later.
And there is no tolerance whatsoever for anyone who abuses anyone, whether it be another manager or any member of the Admin or Mod team.
If you know this manager please keep it to yourself and inform the admin team.
If you know this manager and he rejoins the game, please report it to the admin team straight away.

Now that’s out of the way, this manager made a new account and tried to buy a player from himself straight off the bat at a massively inflated price for a player of his skills.
Image

The bid was immediately canceled and a message was sent to the user informing him of this and that he will incur a fine that had yet to be determined as we were waiting on his response, and this is that response.

Image

As I said, totally unacceptable.

This user

Has received a LIFETIME BAN
If you know of him, if you see he has rejoined “our game” and by that I mean every manager who plays the game the right way and wants to keep it clean of this sort of person, please report him straight away.
We don’t want him in our game, we don’t need people like this playing a game we all love and enjoy.
We don’t need and certainly don’t deserve to be abused like this for doing our jobs and keeping the game clean and fair for all.
We will do our best to keep people like this out of the game, but we also need help from you, the users.
If anyone has been abused in anyway through the game, please report it and we will deal with it.

Thank you
TM-Cyrus and the Admin team.

Great work lads, keep doing what you're doing and know that many managers are grateful for your efforts! :thumbsup

This guy happened to be in my One Day league so I did recognize the name straight away.

Nice work. This guy appears to be an absolute clown. Good riddance and hopefully if he tries to come back, he's swiftly outed.

Good work guys, completely behind your decision on a zero tolerance for abuse.

I agree with a 0 tolerance policy, however being blind I couldn't read the username of the person to know if I have seen or heard of him before. But again, good riddance. Oh and having moderated forums and been a forum administrator before I think I have a vague idea of the barest amount of what you guys put up with. Just know you have our full support.
Thank you very much for your support, his username is, sorry was, MarlinSpike and his team name was Titans.

Firstly the admin team is doing a great job and I feel there are a lot of positives going on

FWIW I'm hoping we can clean the game of abusive characters and chests and have a positive core base that will foster growth in the game as a hole

Thank you admin team

That is shocking and well done for naming and shaming. The community is so much better off without people like him. Sorry you have to deal with that, so unecessary. Keep up the good work :clap
