    I am not happy with karan265

    First, he rips Sohan's site (totally, including the code, then angrily denies it, then later gets rid of it because he knows he's in too deep and everyone is onto him)
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=153779&page=32

    Then, the smart ass is so arrogant and up himself that he gets a free template, removes the designed by notice, and gloats about it, and then says to me (after I say I'm going to try and find the owner and contact him/her):
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=153779&page=33

    This is twice he has used another persons design, just like that!

    Reasons why he should be banned:
    - Rips other people's designs
    - Lies about it, then accuses other members of lying
    - Then he starts ripping into other members who told him he was bad for ripping sohan's site
    And directed at me:
    This guy thinks he can do whatever he wants, regardless of laws and MORALS. He doesn't care that he ripped a design. He is another teenage punk (I know he his, if he wasn't a teen he would have said he wasn't to prove me wrong) who thinks the world revolves around him.

    He even admits "using a layout made by a fellow dp member". Last night he was getting angry because he was being accused of copying it!

    This forum would be better of without people like karan265. Today ripping people's design without care; what tomorrow? As far as I'm concerned, he is on the level on scammer - which is absolutely NOT tolerated. He is part of the group which has prevented people from being able to show live previews of their designs, or show scripts; because they don't want it ripped and then the poor person who buys it gets a non-unique template.

    From experience, DP doesn't ban for these reasons, more for duplicate accounts, etc. Bad apples are allowed in for some reason, hopefully he does something against the rules HERE to get himself banned as we don't need his sort here. :)

    It's weird, he's tried to scam a couple of times but nothings happened. I guess because he hasn't succeeded yet (always gets busted!) he hasn't done enough to get banned.

    Personally I think better safe then sorry :)

    Yeah ofcourse he wants me banned, I made this thread so he made up some rubbish against me in retaliation

    Take this for example:
    That cheeky little sod! There was no link back, I threatened to contact the owners because he had deleted the link. So what did he do? Put the link back on, then posted what I had posted earlier when threatening to contact the owner:
    See how he tried to make it seem like I was ripping into him for nothing? That's what I mean by this guy is a very bad apple. Him trying to misrepresent the situation is VERY low of him!

    If people have a problem with someone here, they have to deal with it legally. I've seen this sort of thing happen at other forums and the person's normally banned instantly, most forums don't want these people having free roam to do as they please to their members.

    I think the best would be to ignore it. DP is not going to ban the user, (they rarely do).

    2 threads on the same subject, (Why I want xxx banned), is bound to get people more upset rather than achieving anything useful.

    Don't loose your good name over things like that.

    Yeah, it's best to just research someone as best you can before doing business with them, and others should do the same. It's out there now for people to find and see about this person in particular. :)

    So if the mods don't do anything, everytime he posts trying to sell something, then post a load of links and examples of the guy being a knob......

    People actually get infractions for that! :confused:

    I can't think of anyway how though. We didn't do a transaction together, so I can't give him a negative iTrader. I red repped him and encouraged people to do the same if they think what he has done was immoral (that's what reputation is for in my opinion - basically if they behave good or bad)

    Well they do not know if this is true or not do they? It sad but the forum does not have claws to deal with this kind of stuff. You can create a site simlar to his and make sure when ever his site come on Google yours do to.

    Or you can offer some space in your singature and tell people about. I think after a while people will know what happend and the problem person will wanish.

    I got an infraction for doing just that on the user bccruzer. Imagine, he scammed a few people and I got an infraction for warning people about him. In what other forum would that happen ?
    Its like if someone in the neighborhood steals my car, then I warn my other neighbors of the thief and then the police give me a $100 ticket for telling the neighbors.

    That makes you wonder what that moderator is/was thinking.
    (That last comment about the mod is serious and not just a flaming of that mod)

    Some of the scams are definitely true. Him ripping sohan's site is definitely true. I don't think he could rank high in Google anyway lol

    I was thinking about that, but then he would just do one in retaliation and I couldn't be bothered having to explain why he has "rochow is a scammer" in his sig

    LOL that's funny :)

    I would give you rep but I've given too much today - I think I gave some to you for an earlier post somewhere anyway

    He is saying ban me because he knows he won't be - it's him being a smart ass like he always does. He is a little kid - 13 apparently. In that stage where they think they can say whatever they want and do whatever they want, you know?

    EDIT: Wow I did some research on you. You are quite a busy young boy.

    "I am Karan Khanna. A cool 12 year old guy who studies in DPS Gurgaon Class 7C."
    Source: http://keane21.tripod.com/ - Your Site

    WhoIs Data from brb.name - Your hosting site confirms you live in Gurgaon, HR, 122002, India
    Source: http://who.godaddy.com/WhoIs.aspx?domain=brb.name&prog_id=godaddy

    WhoIs Data from proxy99.info - One of your proxy sites - Your name is not Nathan Martyn, and you don't like in California... Wow, fake data... naughty boy!
    Source: http://who.godaddy.com/WhoIs.aspx?domain=proxy99.info&prog_id=godaddy

    Your StumbleUpon, where you are "18":
    http://karan265.stumbleupon.com/

    You are also quite the little pirater - look at this download (courtesy of karan265 it says, and the p/w is you aswell, meaning you uploaded it):
    http://www.dadesiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=47185 (WARNING: contains some adult pictures in one of the posts on this thread)
    Also looky here:
    http://www.sexypv.com/archive/index.php/t-10958.html (No adult piccies on this one, so feel free to check it out)

    Also, I was looking at your NamePro's account:
    http://www.namepros.com/member.php?u=35622
    Your name is black, and it says "Account Closed". Did someone do something naughty and get yourself banned? You haven't been on since
    DOB: October 17, 1988... so are you 12 or 18? Pick one. The waybacky machine says your site was in 2005:
    http://web.archive.org/web/*/keane21.tripod.com

    Which would make you 13 - exactly the age Sohan said you were. Not forgetting when I mentioned you were a little punk teenager, you didn't say anything in reply, meaning that you agreed and know you are young.

    Here is your profile on projectw.org - a big warez forum:
    http://www.projectw.org/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=239895

    Lets have a look at some posts of yours:
    Nulled scripts - You thanking the poster (you downloaded then) http://www.projectw.org/viewtopic.php?p=7619523&highlight=#7619523
    SEO All In One - You downloaded it (said so yourself) http://www.projectw.org/viewtopic.php?p=7619487&highlight=#7619487
    GamePack for onArcade - Requesting a game pack (because you don't buy stuff) http://www.projectw.org/viewtopic.php?p=7944439&highlight=#7944439
    MediaSiteScript - You provide a mirror - (paying as usual) http://www.projectw.org/viewtopic.php?p=7590920&highlight=#7590920
    MyGamingLadder - (do you buy anything?) http://www.projectw.org/viewtopic.php?p=7533598&highlight=#7533598
    IPB & PHPBB Skins - (guess who didn't buy!) http://www.projectw.org/viewtopic.php?p=7509478&highlight=#7509478
    Yabsoft MegaFile Hosting (you want to pay a few bucks for someone to null it for you) - http://www.projectw.org/viewtopic.php?p=7508760&highlight=#7508760
    An ExtremePixels.com skin (you provide a mirror for everyone, help out with the warez) - http://www.projectw.org/viewtopic.php?p=7411439&highlight=#7411439
    ShockGameScript - (again, spread everything illegally for free) - http://www.projectw.org/viewtopic.php?p=7290882&highlight=#7290882

    Turns out you also own www.oproxy.info - Looks like you are still in Cali, but in Los Angeles this time. So in 3 months, you have moved from Los Angeles, to San Diego (didn't know that was in Cali) and also had a name change:
    http://who.godaddy.com/WhoIs.aspx?domain=oproxy.info&prog_id=godaddy



    So let me sum it all up:
    - You lie about your age
    - Use fake WhoIS data
    - Illegally download scripts and skins
    - Rip people's site designs
    - Try and sell templates which are freely available (while claiming them as your own)... look here:
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=219072
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=213278
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=223323
    - After being busted for ripping a site design, you turn around and take one off www.freecsstemplates.org and remove the link back (which you HAVE to put)

    It's people like YOU which spread files around, make hard working webmasters lose money (not including the COUNTLESS scripts you have downloaded, but like poor colleen who's files have been spread [www.phproxythemes.com] ALL OVER PROJECTW.ORG).

    How much more evidence do I need. You have a bad attitude, you clearly do not care for any rules, you think you are a law upon yourself, but most of all YOU SCAM AND CHEAT OTHERS OF MONEY. Would you like me to add up the cost of every script you have downloaded? That would be in the THOUSANDS of dollars.

    I want you banned. You picked on the wrong person to screw with Karan Khanna.

    I think you got officially OWNED :D

    Seriously though. What more can I show in order to prove that this guy is doing DP more bad than good?
