Poor guy, mistakes happen and this is a really stupid one. Good luck for him to get new invites.
The exact same thing happened on SCC. Some people really don't know how to use their brains.
If that's him, he shouldn't have used the same nickname... basic but vital security tip.

I might wanna reccommend that you guys limit your viewing of people's profiles there on TI.
Simply b/c it'll display the 'recent visitors' to have visited that banned profile. A mod may come by, see who's visited, and maybe make a comparison guess between who's visited and who's posted screenshots here on SBI.
So...just a word of caution is all I"m making here.
Don't get yourself banned b/c of some unnecessary enthusiasm to view someone's else's profile over at TI.
If you really want to view, then I would highly reccommend FireFox's extension called INTERCLUE.
YOu can use that extension to view someone's profile and in using it, you'll actually see that, that member has been banned without actually having visited that profile.
basically, there's no trace of you having visited that profile. Simple.

Oh, oh. Better use LINUX.
That screenshot was from a thread
But you're totally right, and they could very well be checking who visited that thread as well.

Here's what I mean when wanting to visit someoen's profile AND using INTERCLUE (What an awesome extension!!!)
Check it out. I've used INTERCLUE here.
There's lot's of stuff that has been taken out for obvious reasons.
Now this is done for those who are not familiar with that extension.
This is how one stay's safe.

for rudam.mendez ,using the same nick is not the main reason for ban, a respected member at 'TI' and maybe also a cheater becuase he detect nprg icon in his snapshoot.thus i will bet that he already had used nprg.it' s funny thing but i am really surprised becoze no other member had wondered how this anti-cheaters know the tools
In some ways, I'd have to disagree with this.
Simply b/c it's common knowledge that for someone who's just brand-spank'in new to cheating, using the same username on one place as on another, such as a trading/give-away board, is a good enough reason for some staff-guy to ban that person.
Or maybe he just took a chance. Maybe he did. Who knows, yes??
I understand that what your saying is that it's not the main reason for being banned.
Yes.
That's true
Apparantly, it was an icon of NRPG.
But I think that it's also fair to say that it's one of a number of reasons why a person get's banned in-addition to having the same username.
Which is so obviously-blatantly-crazily-brain-numbingly, stupid.
But, that's what happens when you either take a chance, thinking that you'll never get caught for what ever reasons you feel or are just plain being a noob.
I mean, even I used to take chances.
and I think that we all do, yes??
I mean. .....Would you actually believe that when I was a noob to the world of cheating, I used the same username on a torrent site, and yes, my account is still alive there, to that of a different cheating board from quite a long time ago.
Don't ask me which tracker.
MYOB.
I even asked the admin there to re-activate my account after some time passed without activity.
Obviously, he doesn't know what's what. But it's a nice torrent site there. One of my 1st's in fact.
There's many ways to stay safe and out of the lime-light.
One of those is what I mentioned earlier in one of my posts above.
And of course, there's a tonne more out there. Having to be able to disable refferers is another, usernames are another, a decent tool or mod is another, knowing when to there's opportune times to download and cheat is another, reading cheating tutorials is another, and last, but not least, is having good connections for tracker invites is definitly something you want to hang onto for 'just in case' purposes.

I think what's more sad about this, is the snitching for credit whoring that happens on these invite boards. I mean, it's "ok" when a staffer detects a person who is a "bad apple", i.e., cheater/trader/scammer, for he is only doing his job and trying to protect his forum, but it makes me angry when the common users come here (or other trading place) to spy and snitch back suspicious users in order to get "petted" by admins. It's like a friend of mine here once said: "these places are full of sharks". It's not the way to go, informers are pitiful.
it's hip to be square
