Not with intent to revive this, but I've just seen that Arcas got banned. If gosha@e-coin was one of his alts, shouldn't both have been banned?

Btw, I don't know the reason for the ban, so it'd be interesting to know it. Not really relevant but out of curiosity

None of the other three, michaeladair / michaeladair_altacc / Desscount are currently banned, so you'll have to reach out to the admin/devs to see if they can clarify why that one UID out of the four has been banned (and how long for).

..... Now they are apparently a sig campaigner
I can't say if this is really relevant to the topic but I remember Arcas wearing a paid signature too [like a mixer] when he was posting at the Betnomi thread. He was only critical of the casino at that time and not really attacking other members who post something positive or an argument against his post. It was gosha who is threatening to leave a negative feedback.

TL;DR

Desscount is identified as an alt of Arcas by icopress.  Arcas is DT trusted by michaeladair who along with michaeladair_altacc have overlapping timelines with Arcas.

Conclusion:

I don't believe Arcas is a bought account, rather has gone into and come out of hibernation when the michaeladair UID was exposed for scam behavior.

Since I've kept bumping into this troll/moron that is constantly derailing threads in a small attempt for attention, I've decided to do some digging, to try to get the few people that left positive feedbacks at least change it to neutral so that it doesn't "legitimate" the account in the eyes of the untrained, and to try to find the connection between this bought account and any banned one, proving a ban evasion and until the clown gets another account to derail threads with, get rid of him. Let's see what I've found so far:

It may well be that Arcas is an alt of michaeladair/michaeladair_altacc

haha are you serious? accusing me from changing accounts while nutildah was the one who tried to sell his account a while ago
lmao

That was now over 4 years ago, in 2016, before the forum really exploded in popularity. A lot of accounts that are high ranked today used to buy and sell accounts back then or before then. Since then, the potential for damage caused by the fake reputation given to a scammer (such as yourself) has increased considerably.

What's considerably tagworthy in your instance is the fact that you are stirring shit on the forum under the direction of game-protect, and you keep switching to new accounts in order to evade red trust. So regardless of whether or not your account was hacked or purchased, you should be tagged for the reasons gosha@e-coin was tagged, as that is also your account.

My god; I've only been around this reputation board for a couple of days and I'm already tired about hearing from this story. Get over it, for fucks sake.

There's no reason why the "nutildah tried to sell their account 3 years ago" and "your account is a bought one" can't coexist

This one is not valid; it did belong to a physicall bitcoin, but at the end of the very same thread quoted, we can see that it was sold to Fruitmandje. Or at least it looks that way

Here's another account that was re-activated recently to switch from whatever they were doing before to now mainly complaining about casinos, their terms and conditions, frauds, scams, etc:

BitcoinAccepted

Clearly a unique case as its a Legendary with only 2 earned merits and a password change on 10/6. Looking back at their post history, they mainly sold goods out of the U.K. Now they are apparently a sig campaigner with somewhat broken English that posts exclusively about gambling and casinos. Here was their first post after "coming back," what a compelling way to break the ice (remember, they went from perfect English to this):

I switched business these years. Maybe it can be interesting trying to make some money with gambling as well. I read many things about these so called KYC.

He's particularly keen on involving himself in the scam accusations of others, always taking the side of the "scammed." No definitive GP / gosha connection yet, but something to keep an eye on.

It looks very likely that ownership is changed in this case, but maybe he can prove ownership for addresses he posted before 2020.
Let's give him the benefit of the doubt first.

Addresses he posted before:

And you are.... who exactly?

I'm not sure yet but anyway...
Let's not go off topic.
Let's stick with the possible alts of Arcas. Aka nutildah, GP, CH and that other guy who is maybe from Indonesia.

Now have you examined thoroughly nutildah? And CH ? Maybe they are working together as a team?
Those two are always chatting away together or maybe to themselves.

I'm just saying don't exclude any possibility.
Are you Arcas? Seek only the truth however painful.

Don't get fixated on your first suspicion.

You see that outburst from the new nutildah account owner?
That's a sign you're on track.

Cross reference his account sale with his password changes.
Tell.me what you find.
Then cross reference those with CH and GP and Arcas

When considering who is an alt or possible alt of another member then consider all available data.

Listing accounts for sale is a big red warning.
Follow the link above.
Nutidah = Arcas?
That is a far higher probability that it being CH as you speculated above.
But I wouldn't rule CH out.

Well, what's worrying is that he has a +9 green trust rating beside the many untrusted positives. A quick search relates that account with aomakun; both users have only sent 2 merit units and it's been between them.

This aomakun guy also changed his password earlie this year, in february. Used to post a lot in Indonesian boards, but 0 activity there since 2018. Post quality/english was not the greatest and that hasn't changed, but posting boards sure have. This may even be the next account used to try to extor another casino

You're absolutely right -- looks like it was purchased at about the same time by the same person, for the same reason.

I notice BitcoinAccepted was wearing the Wolf.bet signature, and that campaign has been "paused" since August. So he's not actually in the campaign, neither is aomakun in the Idena bounty. The merit transfer kind of seals the connection. Also neutral tagging aomakun for now.

Why don't you report his posts to the mods as "off-topic"? If they were as 'dealing' the conversation as you mentioned, would get deleted. Regarding asking for a signed message, they would simply come out with an excuse "I lost access to that wallet" and sign with an address staked by the new owner.
Most of the times, I arrive late to the party. It makes sense to report an offtopic/trolling post when it has just been created, but if it has been aswered 7/8 times.... chances it gets deleted are rather slim.

Password for this account was changed on 9/4/2020 2:19:56 PM and that was the moment he purchased this account.
I did see that password change in BPIP; but since it was not something that happened during any inactivity interval, I was not really sure as to how to read that.




---
I noticed this user because he was pissing me off just by reading his replies, and thanks to both BPIP and the Ninjastic website, I did a little diggin and well, it was something rather obvious even without the evidence.

Not sure about that message being for me or for notblox, but to clear things up, BPIP extension shows that we both are DT2 with a strenght of 1

Nice find notblox1
Agreed, and this is the sort of research I used to do when I had more time and drive to sniff out alt accounts.  As I mentioned before, there were a lot of accounts either hacked or sold somewhere around October 2017, and I remember noticing a lot of accounts where the owner switched languages/writing style/whatever did so in the months before and after that month of Oct.

Keep up the good work if you decide to continue sniffing out sold or hacked accounts.  I don't know if you're on DT or not, but you could always drop me a PM and I'll review the evidence and tag 'em if they deserve it.

And yes, I know that the troll must not be fed, but I'm a bit fed up about seeing threads getting derailed; and it's not really up to hitting the ignore button on my end, because he keeps on getting replies

When the user started posting again in 2017:
Suddenly spoke a lot of Indonesian

Right there should be enough proof to know the account changed hands but who knows they could also say "I moved to Indonesia in that year".

Password for this account was changed on 9/4/2020 2:19:56 PM and that was the moment he purchased this account.
After that he started to write in Gambling Section and stopped to write in Altcoin Discussion.
He just continues the path of his other accounts in trash talking all casinos.
Nice find notblox1, I am personally certain Arcas is one of the bought accounts by Game-Protect. Look at the gaps of the password changes between gosha@e-coin and after the password changes both accounts start posting in gambling section with obsession, something they didn't do in the past.

These are the findings I made sometime back on the gosha@e-coin profile when it started suspicious activities
1. 3/3/2020, Game-Protect gets banned

2. 4/11/2020, 7:14:43 PM, gosha@e-coin changes Password for the first time since the BPIP started recording Password changes.

3. 4/11/2020, 8:07:33 PM gosha@e-coin Makes The first post after a long posting Gap. The last one was made on 6/16/2017, 10:56:23 AM

4. 4/11/2020, 9:39:50 PM The obsession for Gambling discussion begins as Game-Protect used to do.

One thing for sure is this account was definitely compromised or bought.
