Topic: Is ItsCrafty a bought account? (Read 556 times)

ItsCrafty as for me you have said nothing here. Do you really understand the concept of the thread at all? This is a very straight forward question of Yes or No. If it is yes the  you give your explanation and if it is no then you still give your explanation. But you are beating around the bush of deviating from the original content to bounty discussion, or should I call your attention back to the main issue here? Your utterances are not encouraging and convincing.
If your articulations are good to convince then the Op will remove the negative trust but you have not helped any matter here. I don't know if other people are convinced with what you have said.

I'm getting a clearer picture who your previous alts are - true to form even with this new alt.  You should let it go (after-all, respect is a two way street).

I can't tell you anything about that. Only the global moderators themselves can comment on this. As for any instructions from theymos also can not say anything. I have not heard about it.

Yep, that's the problem as once someone deletes his plagiarized post, he can't be banned or bare any pther consequence whatsoever and I personally don't understand the logic behind it. Unless they think that is a slight chance that members who are archiving posts might tamper with it.

These are exact words of The Sceptical Chymist, he hates it when once a good English user deteriorates and then gives silly  excuses like travelling as the reason for the  progressive worsening of English .


Could it be that moderators are becoming more lenient in decision making these days. Maybe theymos had issued an information/advice on this after it was discovered that he invalidated reports that are 6 months old.

It would have been nice that you didn't appear here, than appearing without a cogent defence to the allegations against you.

Well, he wrote everything correctly that he reported to a moderator. What I meant was that I was the one who didn't report the case in the moderator section. Why I didn't do that I wrote in the post you quoted. And I, unfortunately, do not have the authority to ban users with that rank. I haven't risen to the rank of global moderator yet

Catching irony is not your thing, is it? If I have Timelord2067 on ignore it's because I don't want to read what he says, and now that I see it because you quote him, I can see that he probably hasn't taken his meds today.


Icopress said it was reported.


 

No, this particular case has not been reported. But I had a similar case earlier from the Pakistan section. Also plagiarized. I reported it in the moderators section, but there was no response to my request, even though I gave the example of two cases of plagiarism. So I saw no point in filing an application against this user, as it would likely be ignored as well.

"Do not worry about your accuracy too much; one accurate report is worth many inaccurate reports."

Hey Timelord2067, I'm at a loss for words to respond to what you say. I've been touched.

 


If it has already been reported and no action has been taken, what is the point of reporting it again? I ask out of ignorance.

A part of the problem this thread has is that people do actually move across town, the county or even the planet...  ... and ensuring you have a specific wallet addresses PrivKeys five, ten twenty years into the future in case someone decides they doubt who you are and demand you sign from an old wallet address ... are some of you saying you've NEVER lost a wallet through an upgrade or system crash?

It's a very vague "He said" / "She said" kind of a FUD thread - why didn't the OP just report the (apparent) plagiarism?

Yes? Try reporting plagiarism using this post. The author unfortunately deleted this post. But we do have ninjastic. And this text is definitely plagiarized. No global moderator will respond to such a plagiarism report.

Let me correct you, stompix:


Let's see what a moderator has to say.


With the lenient approach that the forum has lately about plagiarism and the lack of clear criteria, as some people get banned, and others don't, I think I'm right to leave the feedback.

Same for ItsCrafty, he also mentioned he's from the US when he was buying hardware in 2017

Obviously, it's not the original owner behind it, no way possible.

Anyhow, I don't know why we should still discuss reputation if indeed he was found out with plagiarism, there is only one outcome once that is proved, the whole owner change thing becomes irrelevant when the account is banned.

Everyone can say that, you need to convince @PlayPoker, for this accusation, they doubt your account, no need to say blah, blah, blah nobody believes it, unless you can prove that you are the real owner and vice versa.

You see the 2017 signed address, posted by @Plaguedeath, above.
If you are the original owner of the @ItsCrafty account, you can certainly re-verify it, if you are not the original owner, obviously you cannot do that.

It's easy for you to prove this accusation is not true, verify and re-sign the address you have verified here.

I managed some bounties where I escrowed fund(Token and Usdt) and paid all to hunters honestly. If money making was my only goal(illegal way) then i could eat all these fund(500$+) and bought 4-5 new account because i saw many Thread in service where users offering full member account price 100$. maybe they are scamming because i never contacted these users.

Raiser Bounty Escrowed

Bkex Exchange Bounty

You can also give me two positive trust for distributing to all members honestly

I forgot to add more detail.

1BeE9gUagzzEr3hUK3CUy7UPkDR1xvNxWJ and 1CRe4ASxVxRaPWWVG8M9wri9FiMYwE72eP is a part of 1e247483ab7baa1e wallet.

crafty was use 1CRe... address since 2013, so I think even though ItsCrafty use a different address, it doesn't matter since it's belong to same wallet.

If the account was bought, it is a much smaller mistake compared to the plagiarism he was accused of. Proven plagiarism (which is not that difficult to prove) leads directly to a ban, the way in which the person who currently manages the account came to control it, is completely negligible.

The absence of a complaint by the original owner does not mean that it did not happen. A large number of accounts are neglected or inactive and their owners probably don't even think about them. The only investigation that makes sense here is whether there are alt accounts connected to the person behind ItsCrafty, mostly for the reasons of mistrust you mentioned.

But the claim isnt valid, ItsCrafty signs the message using an address that Crafty never used. And twitter account is certainly not strong enough for account recovery.
Just making light guesses, ItsCrafty was indeed created by the user behind Crafty and then either hand-transferred or hacked (but didn't bother restoring it) because it's only an alternate or temporary account.


If with reasonable evidence he is suspected of trying to recover an account that isn't really his, then that's a violation.

If you had only looked at icopress' quote above, you would have seen that he was already reported, but with the lenient approach to plagiarism that moderation seems to be taking lately, he has been spared a ban, at least for the moment.


Do you see it better now?

I wanted to wait to see if there is more evidence about the purchase of the account or something, but it is clear that the account is not operated by whoever created it. Normally it would be bought or hacked, but if there has been no complaint from the original owner I would opt for bought. In any case, mainly because of that and the plagiarism, for me who operates that account is not trustworthy, he does not hesitate to take shortcuts to make money on the forum.

Account obviously changed hands, no questions about it as English level deteriorated noticeably and that's something that doesn't happen (unless owner suffered from stroke or some similar far fetched scenario).


I am pretty sure thta Op knows about that, but he is more curious about whether account changed hands. Question that remains though is how come no one reported him for plagiarism yet?

I think we have to invite lovesmayfamilis to do her investigation towards this account if actually the account change hands or not. Then if caught for plagiarism why not reporting to the plagiarism thread sir?

I'm not really understand here.

He was create a thread and he mentioned if he lost access to his account crafty on 2017 and when I verify the message, it's valid.


But crafty's active until 2022 and I don't see anything password or email change. crafty's claimed he's from US, he posted it on 2018, while ItsCrafty is from Pakistan.


So, who's got hacked and who's the real owner?

Let's assuming his account was changed hands, some users will say there's no problem about it since the account don't have any positive feedback and he just want to make money in this forum. If he's not found cheated a campaign, I think we can let alone him.

There are threads you can report plagerism to.

So, there is a guy in my current signature campaign who has been caught plagiarizing a couple of times.


You can see in the thread that the user has not been banned and is asking for forgiveness to see if icopress will accept him back.


Seeing this, I thought that it is likely that the couple of cases of plagiarism is just the tip of the iceberg and I took a look at his post history. What I see is that the account was created in 2017 by someone who is an English native speaker or with a very high level of English, who used to write in some specific boards, and, after a posting gap between 2018 and August 2021, there is a change in the boards where he posts and a change in the style of writing, being the first post this one:


For me it is clear that one does not become a worse English speaker in a few years, if anything the opposite, you can see people on the forum whose posts years ago were written with poor English, but over time they have improved because they have learned more English or use tools like automatic translators, which today are very reliable.

The account does not belong at the present to the person who created it.

I ask for your opinion on the subject, especially those of you who have more experience in catching alts and with address analysis, before taking an aggressive approach or opting for a neutral tag.
