I'm curious about the TOU policy involving multiple alias because it seems very vague.
First of all, mulitple aliases are obviously allowed because I've seen ET management or moderators disclose sometimes someone that has such while allowing the member(s) to continue posting at Elitetrader.com
Therefore, please correct any of the following that's not true.
A) Multiple aliases are allowed as long as the ET member is not using them at the same time (e.g. spamming, attacking, disruptive et cetera in the same thread).
B) Mulitple aliases are allowed as long as a prior aliase was not banned or deleted for TOU policy violation.
C) Multiple aliases are allowed as as long as the ET member doesn't start re-using the old aliases.
D) Multiple aliases are allowed if the member is providing good content in his/her discussions.
I just see too many members that ET managment or moderators
knows are the same via another aliase while
allowing the ET member to remain eventhough the TOU policy specifically states the following...
http://www.elitetrader.com/conduct_rules.cfm
5) Registration is limited to one username per member. Elite Trader may, without prior notice, immediately terminate any or all of your accounts after discovering you have registered, and/or posted under, multiple usernames.
I highlighted the word
may in the above quote because it implies that you guys decided when or when it's not ok to have a multiple aliase most likely due to the reasons I stated above.
Therefore, please clarify ET's policy on this issue because I know about 20 very active ET members that have multiple aliases even though a few of these members have stated publicly such is not allowed or was not cool (e.g. TraderZones a.k.a. rcanfiel)...
(TraderZones and rcanfiel have been caught spamming the infamous 250k trading system or the fee-base website here at EliteTrader.com and yet both members "same person" remain)
The 5) aspect of the TOU policy is obviously vague.
By the way, I only know about most of these particular 20 or so ET members with multiple aliases (traderzones is just one example) because ET management or moderators have openly stated the other aliases that belong to these members while a few it's obvious or the members themselves publicly here at the forum say it's true.
Last of all, why are some ET members deleted for spam while others allowed to remain for the exact same spam TOU policy violation eventhough ET policy about spam is a little vague too.
