Cheating in painting competitions

Hi Again Trovarion. I think you may be a little paranoid. My comment was a rhetorical one. As I can think of no good reason for using a false identity shouldn't we as a community stop using them? It is a very simple and straightforward point of view don't you think?

making totally unrelated statements out of nowhere might confuse other people, don't you think?

maybe you should cut the rhetorical and philosophical way of posting short and post more straight forward. but that way you come over less controversal, which you don't want of course...

I am against the use of false names and the use of multiple identites.

most appropriate (and only possible) thing to do in such case. Good that MM management acted immediately after getting notification from Reaper.

Its redundant to think that people using their real names would change a thing, the problem is not the funny name or avatar someone chooses to use on his internet presence the problem is about human nature.
And as i said before theres cheaters aiming for the fast euro everywere and they lie in your face with all their teeth in your presence... to change that is impossible, and for sure making people using their names instead of nicks is nail in the internet freedom. I use my name because i want to but people should be able to use nicks if they want to.

Does this make them liars or cheating more easy? Its a bold and far fetched conclusion to me. Ussually someone elses rules are other peoples prison.
I rather see a painting comp with lots of people that uses both nick and names than a comp just for the ones that use their name or just the ones that have a evolutionary toe

... its pointless really.

If you want a adult community you have to take the good with the bad.

Edit: and i forgot to say, the only thing you can change is yourself and by your example you atract similar people around you... this is what happens here on CofC, good honest people atract more good honest people... while in other places you can see diferent things... like you seem to have to.
