Title: Prevent banned users from changing profile data Post by: Veleor on February 21, 2019, 06:24:06 AM Today I found out that banned users can edit their profiles data.
Recently, in the Russian section I've reported about 17 connected accounts (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5105163.msg49809561#msg49809561) and after that an email address with my nickname has appeared in one of these profiles. I want to note, this is not my email address. Account: btc-e.nz (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1132201) https://i.imgur.com/nH9UPU8.png You can learn from bpip.org (https://bpip.org/profile.aspx?p=btc-e.nz) that profile 'btc-e.nz' was Nuked in January 2019. Code: 1/8/2019 12:48:01 PM Changed to Archived status Nuke user I think that users should be prohibited from changing any data in their profiles after they have been banned.

Title: Re: Prevent banned users from changing profile data Post by: hacker1001101001 on February 21, 2019, 10:31:15 AM We can state this as a misuse of the privileges given by the forum to the banned users. I think giving them a chance to login and change the profile details is a very stupid thing at first.
Banned account is warned with the message. Code: Sorry xxxxxx , you are banned from posting or sending personal messages on this forum. Which implies they are banned from posting and sending PMs, but they are free to change there profile details. This mostly does not affect other members but there could be possible abuse as stated in the OP. it might be a bug like what happened when merit system was implemented the banned users are also got merits and able to spend it. It's not a bug, as you can see that the trust page of btc-e.nz (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=1132201) says "This user's email address was changed recently" which points he has personally changed it to spam @veleor (as per the thinking of scammer) as he has busted his account. It's just a way of him expressing his anger for this event :'( Title: Re: Prevent banned users from changing profile data Post by: theymos on February 21, 2019, 02:02:21 PM Banned users are still able to use the read-only functions of the forum. This is intentional. Changing their email addresses is a necessary part of being able to secure their accounts.

Title: Re: Prevent banned users from changing profile data Post by: Veleor on February 21, 2019, 04:46:36 PM Veleor, do you have a monopoly on that name? nickname Veleor -is not unique login. You think that you "veleor" is a one on the planet. There are a lot of "veleor" nicknames at different services. Any people has the right to register such name. Just in case Security/Moderator Log (https://bpip.org/profile.aspx?p=btc-e.nz) - btc-e.nz (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1132201) Code: 10/27/2018 6:35:59 AM password changed Security/Moderator Log (https://bpip.org/profile.aspx?p=Anti Scam) - Anti Scam (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2385464) Code: 10/27/2018 7:58:00 AM password changed Title: Re: Prevent banned users from changing profile data Post by: o_e_l_e_o on February 21, 2019, 05:14:57 PM If someone has populated their profile page with personal information and contact details, surely it is their right to be able to remove those details if they no longer want them broadcasted, regardless of whether or not they are banned.

Most recently, messages about his connection with Marina Uni began to appear in the Russian locale: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5111347.msg49801074#msg49801074

Are they still able to spend their merits or this has been solved? There would be a real abuse if banned users can still send merits...Title: Re: Prevent banned users from changing profile data Post by: TryNinja on February 21, 2019, 10:32:30 PM Are they still able to spend their merits or this has been solved? There would be a real abuse if banned users can still send merits... Fixed a long time ago. Actually (IIRC), banned users were never able to send merit. What went wrong is that one of the mods mistakenly temporarily unbanned all accounts.Title: Re: Prevent banned users from changing profile data Post by: Thirdspace on February 21, 2019, 11:53:28 PM nickname Veleor -is not unique login. You think that you "veleor" is a one on the planet. There are a lot of "veleor" nicknames at different services. Any people has the right to register such name. that's true but it's just too coincidence changing his email similar to username that got him banned ::) It's not a bug, as you can see that the trust page of btc-e.nz (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=1132201) says "This user's email address was changed recently" which points he has personally changed it to spam @veleor (as per the thinking of scammer) as he has busted his account. It's just a way of him expressing his anger for this event :'( I think it's more like an act of retaliation, trying to frame Veleor for multi account and ban evasion he probably will do some more other things to get Veleor into troubles :-\ as madnessteat said in the previous post, "the war was started against him" (him = Veleor) Title: Re: Prevent banned users from changing profile data Post by: hacker1001101001 on February 22, 2019, 08:31:29 AM -snip- I think it's more like an act of retaliation, trying to frame Veleor for multi account and ban evasion he probably will do some more other things to get Veleor into troubles :-\ as madnessteat said in the previous post, "the war was started against him" (him = Veleor) -snip- that's true but it's just too coincidence changing his email similar to username that got him banned ::) |
