What senior members do outside this forum is not our business...but if they are using forum to further their business and if we get proof, we have always acted against a senior member also ( we banned few of them )..but just because someone has a website or a blog does not mean that he is ullu banawing taking advantage of the forum platform.

Certainly, what a member do outside the forum, or promoting website or blog is not ullu banawing
But ullu banawing by them in real, telling lie, giving false reasons, in the forum, should be a point of concern
I have been advocating to put a IP address ban on the banned members, then weed out multiple IDs but we have not been able to fight this trouble effectively yet.
In some case we investigated and found out that a member used to post under more than dozen IDs with same IP address and he used to put thanks, write sweet posts, even fight with the help of these multiple IDs..we banned all...but that needs to be done regularly which is not happening.
ST
Da, you have given very valid examples of misuse..
But there are still many IDs used for this only, by prominent members.
