Today C4 has been removed from North American Motoring for his using multiple aliases to troll from on the site.

In the recent past, C4 has threatened to leave NAM, only to return and treaten to leave NAM again. Then he moved on to other MINI forums where he proceeded to bash NAM, all the while checking the site regularly, and trolling on NAM under new aliases.

At NAM, we're big believers that people should post under one account. It helps build trust and credibility, in addition to the fact that people do behave differently when they start creating multiple accounts. In some cases in the past, C4's included, people have used new aliases to defend the opinions they just expressed with another account.

Because of these types of problems, for several years now, the NAM site guidelines have prohibited members from using multiple user accounts. Given the numerous instances where C4 has used multiple accounts to conceal his identity, today he has been removed from NAM.

 

Any chance you could post his different acct names so we can weed out/ignore the posts?

 

RE: NAM
C4's posts remain visible. His posting from other accounts has been removed from view. So at least on NAM we have already filtered out that "additional" content.

On MotoringFile:
frankinmiami, nextmoon, magiccity, and multiplepersonalities
here's a nice example of Frank (c4) posting under one username (nextmoon) while defending his posting under another username (frankinmiami)

Thanks Dave.
