Basically, I have 3 questions. 1.I have a thread in the Buy,Sell and trade Section for the past 2-3 months. Can the mods edit the title of the thread? 2.My bro who happens to have moved to a new house has come to know the fact that a DP member has been banned from the same i.p. Can he use the same i.p. to login on DP? Will he too get banned? If I ask the mods, will he be able to access DP? (BTW: Although he is still a Peon but he registered way back in Nov 2006 even before the fellow got banned. So I guess the question of the same fellow, getting banned from an ip and then again trying to get back is out of question. Also this not my ip from which he would be accessing DP, we never have accessed DP from the same ip.) 3. Is it not mandatory to answer in someone's thread and then initiate an itrader? or if the deal has been done via PM, can both of us still quote the thread and exchange itraders? Is this allowed on DP?? I have read the "itrader thread" and it quotes clearly that a reply is needed in the thread but still some "reputed" members have told me that "now" it is not necessary, itrader can be initiated, even if deal has happened via PM? Please clarify the situation. Your help will be appreciated. Al
Here are your answers: 1. Use report button. 2. Simply, inform a mod and he wont get banned....may be. Lets wait for a MOD to answer this question. 3. Only deals made via thread are considered public and are eligible for iTrader. Deals/Transactions made through PM are private and are NOPT eligible for iTrader. You must ALSO have a post in the deal thread in order to use iTrader system.
1 - yes, use report button 2 - yes you can, dont share itrader or rep or posts in each others thread.. 3 - one of you need to have thread.. Can be done via pm.
1. Yes you have to contact Mod by PM or Report button/ 2. Yes you can share IP but not anything else. 3.Yes but any one of both have to thread owner.
Hmm are you sure you cannot leave itrader even if a deal was via PM? Is that stated somewhere? If the buyer/seller has a thread, I believe you can.
yes, report it and request the change To my knowledge your house address and your IP have nothing to do with each other. We have respected members here who share IP addresses with scoundrels. It happens. We look at far more than just IP, so when those scoundrels use a proxy to access DP they still get in trouble. The deal must be the deal in the thread but you don't have to post in the thread. Lets say you promote hosting, I read it, am impressed and sign up. I can leave an itrader. but... Lets say you promote hosting, I already use your company and want to endorse your company. I can comment, I can rep, but I can't leave an itrader.
