yo it's the one and only redox
personally, i'm not too bothered by any idiot who think that they're cool enough to impersonate me (cos they're not, duh). but i am really sorry about the fact that y'all admins out there gotta deal with this loser.
pm me and i'll give you a list of ip addresses to ban. i'd give it here, but then the fucker is going to know exactly which ones to ditch. you don't even have to be an admin, i'll just give 'em to you
peace, friends.

IP addresses can be easily changed, so if the user is persistent, banning the IP address won't do any good. I'm assuming the impersonation occurs in the cbox. If you give the IP address and users apply this last tidbit, it might work. If the spammer were posting in the boards though, it might be easier, since you can contact the server for that.

They're not just impersonating you; they're actually impersonating several others as well along the way.
Long story short, there's been a spammer going about the last week impersonating people in assorted C-Boxes, spamming them and causing trouble. Normally I would say that this is par for the course of being a member of a resource community and having a C-Box, but the frequency with which the spammer is targeting sites is a little too convenient.
I would like to remind people that if you get a spammer that seems to have taken a name from another name that you've known, either from this resource site or from another, please don't outright ostracize anyone using that name; come to the resource site you saw them on, find their name, and give them a Private Message asking what's going on, at least until this guy decides to grow up and stop.
I'm not sure why they're doing this, seeing as the people they've impersonated so far that I know of seem to have very little connection to one another, save for them being members on Gangnam Style. If you've heard of a RP buddy that's been impersonated on another site's C-Box, spread the word that it's an impersonator as well.
Does anyone know of people who are having this same problem this week?

EMMIE @jea Well...actually, someone did impersonate me in Fate/Alter but it was such a poor attempt I didn't think it was related to this one. They called themselves BIRD OF THE CHAPEL, when I went as "Chapel" in the site and I was already OVEN OF BABYLON here. I also thought it was done by one of the members in the site, because "Chapel" was already password-protected and I've given out BIRD OF THE CHAPEL around. I pretended like I didn't see anything in hope that he would get me in trouble enough and be banned for it. (I didn't exactly have the reputation of a troublemaker, so I was a pretty bad choice to impersonate.) I'm pretty sure they're stalking GS and clicking random affiliates. It might be worth it to reference the IP addresses with the members here. Anyway, I'm checking with the staff right now if it was the member I thought of or not.

Send me all the IP addresses the spammer have. We might actually be dealing with a pair of very bored friends. The person(s) is also doing it from their home, not in public wifi. In the meantime, if you encounter the spammer again, get their IP address and IMMEDIATELY search them up here. You might not be able to tell who they are, but you'll know where they live.

The spammer on my site had this ip address, but I am pretty sure that they are using a proxy so it might jump. While they were on my site, they were impersonating @jea, and being very rude to members. i.imgur.com/ymKq91Q.png
