Agreed Tony.

Probably talking about me and Darkness knowing Matthew haha.

Woah wtf is going on???

sharky in ADHL was discovered to be running 7 (potentially 8) different teams.

I was serious about running an IP check here, btw. Get on that Koomz and SJ Josh.

Yeah, can't hurt to run whatever fancy thing it was that caught all the Sharky accounts

[kimmer]

Yep. Run it. Internet is no longer a safe haven for cheaters.

[Tony]

shutup Steve...

[Shoalzie]

I should be able to check that with the admin access I have.

LOL.

I honestly had a good laugh at this.

Should be, i definitely don't have access to do that here. i was obsessed with getting to the bottom of it. once the link between sharky and LA was made, we dug into it, checked all 31 team, found the ones using masking services, turned out to all be the same server providing those services to 6 other teams. Asked those teams to provide proof of location, they were either unable to, it took longer than it should, or they flat out ignored the request. This in combination with a high percentage of churning higher value assets to 2 of the 7 teams made it look more obvious, but with the web that large it was never apparent until a close eye was given to it. Then we disabled all 7 accounts, and he proceeded to try and make new ones to get back in. We then took a page from here and restricted access to new members to pending approval instead of open. I never want to deal with any of that shit ever again, i actually question if it was worth all the time i put into it in the end. If any league i'm in from here on out has any problem resembling this, i'd probably quit.

[The BBKL Insider]

Just to be clear. They are talking about ADHL. I have no links with sharky. I don't even know who he is

[Lee]

Sure thing "steve"

[Arian The Insider]

[bills09]

I am pretty sure this has happened in this league before but not with anyone of our current gms.

[Handsome&FairMike]

wow, that's insane that someone would do that. Good on you guys for catching it haha.

... but seriously, is someone fucking around in our league or was Matt just stirring the pot.

I have a friend in this league, and heard about this and remembered I have an account here.

I just want to point out you jumped to a ton of conclusions both here and in the adhl, a ton, that expose Josh wrote is both hilarious for the leaps in logic you guys took, and sad because of the other people you threw under the bus because of your obsession with this. I flat out admitted LA and I were roommates when asked--never once denied when it came to light, and I owned up to it. The other 23423 teams you're saying is flatout bullshit. I've been trying to create an account on the adhl to tell you all that and for your crack team of investigators to look at this because I don't want my actions of playing with a roommate effecting others, but Koomzzz conveniently keeps blocking me, I can understand now why Sam hated you.

You guys have literally started making me into the boogyman, and fearing every little thing, that you're ignoring the facts and logic, and jumping to crazy conclusions. Keep it up!

Oh ya, and there was one comment on adhl about me "raping" all the teams in question, I've raped a ton of teams including Tim who's throwing a lot of dirt here--I must have been controlling his team when he traded me Barzal for spare parts . I don't need to cheat, nor did I--my one fault was allowing a roommate to play and not telling anyone, because as I told you-- it would be months before I knew it wasn't frowned upon with people like Zach and Brad, and Hertl, Cas, Eugy. Either way, I took responsibility for it, owned up, and then fell on the sword like an adult.

Either way, I don't care-- I really don't, I have lost interest in this stuff for a while because of the sheer stupidity, and this whole thing takes the cake. Go look at my post count, or me not doing awards, or funny trade posts--I've been slowly drifting away. I would have thought what I did for the league, how I conducted business in an always cheerful and pleasant manner, and the fact I admitted to my mistake AND quit because of it, you'd give me some more credit instead of making up bullshit but whatever, it's part of the reason I am glad I am done with a lot of you people. Again, if I were you I'd get your crack team to look at those ip checks again, specifically the 85 teams you're jumping to conclusion that I controlled, especially since Josh and Koommzz have repeatedly said they didn't have actual proof... I must have flown to Thailand where Li is on vacation and hopped on his account to ask me if a trade makes sense...use a little common sense... I barely had enough time for 1 team, and yet I was controlling half the league? Keep it up Angela Lansbury. I don't mind if you get pissy or make accusations about me and my roommate, that's fine-- we caused that ourselves when we went into secrecy and deserve what we got. All this other stuff is fucking crazy, targeted, and bullshit.
