    ATTN: Super Moderators / User Account Abuse Dept. of Digital Point

    Typically I do not get involved with users that are banned from Digital Point, but this user approached me over instant messenger.

    Allow me to first express my experience with the user in question, iBoy, in which I have dealt with before via domain sales transactions and general domain chat over instant messenger. I would like to confirm that this user is a legit domain seller with an outstanding iTrader and reputation here at Digital Point.

    My proposed question regards the user infraction that was issued to his account, as the infraction was worth 5 points and thus temporarily banned him.

    From what I have read, he received an infraction for "PR Spoofing" in a domain's sale. Judging from his previous transaction history, feedback rating, and reputation here, I would say that this user is favorable of at least having a defense towards the [infraction] action posed towards his account, resulting in a temporary ban - the user has mistakenly posted a PageRank of a domain when it was really the PageRank of the domain's inner pages.

    This is a common mistake and the user should have some time to defend him or herself for this clause, as he/she did not have time to edit the post to reflect that the advertised sale was for inner pages of the domain as they are the ones that had PR.

    Further explanation, as quoted from user iBoy himself:

    Please, let us look into this situation as adequately as we can and find a better solution for this case. :)

    Perhaps one infraction point can be reversed so at least the user has access back to their account here, if at worst penalty?

    Thanks for hearing me out.

    MOD: You can reply to this issue & thread publicly or PM me privately for a solution, but please don't overlook it.

    Thank you.

    EGS, I know this is closed, but I will reply.

    I haven't checked out this latest problem but in the past iBoy has caused problems. While sorting one lot out via instant messaging it turned out that iBoy was infact iBoys - and he was so angry with his brother that he sent him to his room and told him never to come out! I was stunned and told the iBoy I was messaging that he and his brother needed to have their own accounts and to let me know asap. Sharing accounts is not allowed - especially when one is a spammer and the other appears to be ok.

    iBoy neglected to take up my offer and I'd been meaning to review his case. If he's been subsequently banned I'm neither surprised nor sorry.
