When Shaneo found RBS 'copied' review earlier, it's easy to see how he found it. He was copying Chris' himself, from one page before!! Now, this is an all time low.

Take a look at Monkey of Wars and RastaBillySkanks reviews, remarkably similar.

Copying doesn't work.

I've copied a few reviews in my year here, and although I wasn't found out (at least publicly), I never won with a copy.

SR are not stupid. If a bunch of computer geeks like Rasta and Grix (no offence :p) can spot cheaters with ease, then surely a nationwide compony can spot them.

Cheating rarely prospers.

My advice to Shaneo - Everyone here seems to hate you. Probably coz you have copyed, and kept coming back to do it again and again and again. Well...I reckon you should sign up for a new account, and this time DONT TELL ANYONE WHO YOU ARE/WERE. Obviously, don't copy either.

Then you can build up a good reputation.

Just to clarify, this is correct. Many SR users (Grix, MC, Ant, Ice-Blaster etc) are members of Ciao, so they are prime suspects for supposed "copying". I have no idea how SR remembered or even knew that you were Gonda.

Do not fear Ant.

Now, to be honest, I cannot continue to answer questions like these, because sooner or later, all of you will obviously notice who the copier is.

But anyway, don't worry about it. It's in Special Reserve's hands now, and I am sure they know what to do.

I only spoke about it in this topic because it seemed like the right place to post it. Had I not found this topic, I would not have said anything.

But like I said earlier, I am sure that SR can deal with it and in whichever way they choose.

Could you tell me if it's me please??

This is because all of my reviews have also been posted in Dooyoo and Ciao, under the name of Gonda. So you may've found the reviews on those websites, and then seen the same ones under my name on here.

I have found a Notable, who has copied many reviews, and I have already sent an e-mail to SR regarding this, but they are not making any actions towards the user.

I am not mentioning any names because I know how it feels to be provoked on the site in front of many other GAD members, so my apologies for not mentioning the users screen name.

Let's just hope that SR will do something as soon as possible, because it hurts to see this particular person on the site still, and it's surely not fair to see them win a GAD prize again, because they are taking our chances away from winning, too.

Maybe I am wrong...maybe the person who did copy those reviews, copied them from a website where they had submitted the same review beforehand. And if I am wrong, I apologise for mentioning this. But if I am right, why is SR not doing anything?
