Is impersonating a mod a ban-able offense?

[Mork]

Just curious. . .

How would someone impersonate a mod?

 

[Viper GTS]

Something like this

Do NOT do that again.

It's stupid if you ask me, but some children get a kick out of it.

I guess if someone --other than a real mod-- started banning people and locking threads. Yeah sure, that's probably a bannable offense.

 

[Azraele]

I'd say it is. Some unfortunate soul came in and posted as "Anandtech Moderoter."

He/she didn't last too long.

 

[shawnmos]

nope it sure isn't.

Think again! :Q

Shawn, first off, that's so easily not edited by a mod.

You MUST always remember to have the t on tech in caps


Paulson's right.

- obviously it's me doing this, but just to give you an example

The "Message edited by: shawnmos on 06/15/2001 21:32:52 " is still a dead giveaway.

 

[Paulson]

Well, not really, because he has that below his post, which means he could have updated his post after the mods did, but knowing him, he's faking it ...

I think the key is that if you DO NOT see the following on the bottom of post it is bogus

I don't get why people impersonate the mods anyways. Not worth being banned over.

 

[Paulson]

Damn mod.

Now it makes me look stupid!


You don't need our help to do that


Jeez mods, remember to put the / on your tags My sig doesn't need to be all bold!

 

[Yo Ma Ma]

I know I can't spell.

But I don't go around acting as someone's mother trying to fix others mistakes!

How do you know whether some mothers are mod's here or not?

 

[Azraele]

<<But I don't go around acting as someone's mother trying to fix others mistakes!>>

What would you rather have...a gentle correction by a mod or continue to make mistakes?

Besides, I know at least one mod to have made a typo or two before. I wonder if that's the typo mod???


Yes it is
