The real Edster needs some assistance here and really should be protected. Admin please do something about this!
The user:Eyeswideshut has copied my Edster922 nickname and is going about posting insulting threads pretending to be me...
He has entirely different:
1. membership status (Bronze vs. Gold)
2. # of posts
3. Date registered
Doesn't Ecoustic have some sort of programming mechanism to prevent people from copying each other's Nicknames, not just their Usernames?
Gotta say, he is a clever little bugger.
Just getting me back because I gave him a good verbal shpanking on one of the threads is all...probably the same user as Anonymous.
ho-hum, Ecoustics is getting more interesting by the day! LOL |

If the admin at this site doesn't believe that it is worth their time to keep a clean forum where imposters are not free to register with my or someone else's name then it is not in my best interest to continue to contribute here. |

Administrators seem to get to some of these things. I am not sure how fast they do it, and sometimes they simply remove the offending posts rather than ban offending posters, which is what I think would be more effective.
Intrusive oversight versus anything goes - I guess it is a hard balance to maintain, but this site definitely seems to be leaning toward the anything goes philosophy of moderation. |

Seems to take them anywhere from an hour to a couple days to respond. I would expect action some time today. |

Please ban this guy, dear administrator, for a month or so. He will probably come back as another imposter, so maybe the "full name" line needs to not be copy-able as Edster suggested. |

I really hope there is a way to ban an I.P. address instead of a profile. |
