Woodie & BitcoinHunt3r

[BossJumong]

I'm not accusing Woodie and BitcoinHunt3r of any kind of cheating. I just noticed they have the same username on different platforms and character cases. Just a coincidence, right?

I just noticed they have the same username on different platforms and character cases.

What character cases? If the usernames on those platforms are case sensitive, as they usually are, you have no case here.

Stake Username: coinHunterz

BlackJack username:  coinhunterZ

Apart from the fact that having alts is allowed on the forum, what is forbidden or at least frowned upon is certain behaviours with alts.

Are there any other similarities between the two accounts? Because I don't see any.

Just sharing a similar name across different platforms is hardly evidence of anything. You need more than that to connect the dots. Many times when I want to use my favorite username on a platform, I find it's already taken, so I have to choose an alternative. It's pretty common, actually. "coinhunterz" is too generic a term to be linked to a single user.

Well since this is to clear your curiosity about the similar username on both platforms, which here is not an evidence of account connection, you may have to come up with more evidence such as wallets connection and the rest of what have you to pin two accounts together.

Between that, both accounts have not violated any rules, e.g enrolling both accounts in same signature campaign, or bounty with intent to cheat the reward, so for now you may have to lock this thread.

And even if these two accounts belong to the same person, so what?


It's not forbidden to have several accounts. As long as they don't abuse a campaign, everything should be okay.

I check that both of them applied in the same campaign few times e.g. Whirlwind, Stake etc, but both of them didn't get accepted. Some people think this is form of cheating because they have intention to participate in the same campaign, although we don't know what will happen if they both get accepted.

However the most important point is whether they both are alt accounts, it's quite hard to find the connection.

One is an Indonesian and other one is a Filipino. never speak Indonesian.

Expected this inqury to pop-up sooner or later

Let's just say for @BitcoinHunt3r the user name is in the username itself and for myself i think username came from bountyhunter which I was involved in some few years back and unfortunately name was taken ofcourse and had to tweak the username for my personal use...and having noticed someone else on the forum used the "coinhunterZ" username... I no longer use it for new signups as a username to avoid further confusion in the future.

And for some reason I thought BitcoinHunt3r used his/hers without the "Z" when I came across the username few years back..but whatever the case we are two different user's!!!

It's only cheating when accounts belong to the same user but unfortunately we  are totally different people!!

I don't think we have users that avoid their local communities here  , and with all the years I have been on the forum don't you think I would have been making some form of contribution to that community knowing very well the perks it has... otherwise wish I could speak Indonesian or Filipino  , but my advice let's not speculate on such...and btw where is the Filipino coming from

This does not worth making a post in the reputation board because it is simply a distraction. I will advise the OP to lock this thread because there is no point in it. I do not know when it became an offence to use the same username in different platforms that will warrant it creating a thread in reputation board. It is obvious you don't even know that reputation board is for people with questionable character in the form of violation of forum rules. Several usernames in this forum are similar and there is no issue with that provided there is no violation of the forum rules.

maybe because there is a similarity in the use of the username that makes suspicion. Op is actually not completely wrong. but he did not include strong supporting evidence for his accusation. it was just an assumption or possibility felt by Op from the catch he got.

if Op cannot present additional evidence or if other users add evidence. this accusation thread will not have any meaning. then it would be better to lock it for now and Op can reopen it when he gets stronger evidence.

Not trying to help or defend OP, but you guys need to read the post again. He never accused the mentioned accounts of cheating; So no need to ask for evidence that you're looking for. I think he only noticed that Woodie and BitcoinHunter have the same username on different platforms. I understand that you guys assume if someone posts here in reputation board you think there's something wrong or someone is cheating but its not. , I do agree to lock this thread since Woodie already mentioned that they're different user.

I agree with you.
OP did not accuse them of being alt. Since both of them have same username on different platforms, he finds it interesting but did not dig out. So he posted it here in case anyone want to dig out further. Because we have seen a lot of cases where people posted some clues and then several forum members came with more information about these accounts. Since OP is not accusing of anything like, cheating on any campaigns, it is okay in my opinion.

yes, I read it. come on, we all know the real point of this kind of post. what Op is really throwing is wanting to get another response from users who are willing to do research for him.
Op is not accusing, so what does he want to get?

look at Op's lazy habits

I'm too lazy to make a report. Can someone make report about this one https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5498074.msg64159544#msg64159544

If OP doesn't think or suspect that there's anything dodgy going on, what's the point in creating this topic and using an alt account while doing so? After all, having an alt account is not against the forum rules.

I really understand your point and yes, that might be the reason why OP posted this thread. I want to explain what I understand here: in your post, it seems like you're trying to agree or assume (again) that the accounts mentioned by OP are connected or that they belong to the same person because you assume OP posted this thread to seek help in proving that Woodie and BitcoinHunter are connected or are the same person.

Only OP can answer the purpose of why he make this thread.
Ps. This will be my last post here.

It's not forbidden to have several accounts. As long as they don't abuse a campaign, everything should be okay.

Alt account can be bad for lending and can be an additional reason for defaulting on loans. If you have 10 alt accounts, if you default on one of the loans you can continue with the rest of the accounts, but if your alt accounts are known you will not be able to participate in any campaign unless you pay off your loans.

If you're not accusing me of anything, then why is this thread dedicated to these members? Why is putting them in the spotlight and the issue is nonsense? When I sign up for a platform with my favorite username already taken, I just put in numbers or capitalize some letters. We have attachments to usernames, and we do not have a copyright to usernames. It's on a first-signup, first-username basis.
You should know that if you are joining many platforms that ask for usernames.

[Marykeller]

You do not have any case at hand; matter is closed. I will advise you to lock the thread preferably, since you have no good evidence to back up the account connection claims.

Having the same known name answered outside the forum shouldn't trigger a gunshot like this, in the forum because it will be a missed target

[icopress]

I think these 2 accounts belong to the same person.

However, I see no reason to flag these accounts as long as they participate in different campaigns and do not abuse football pools and contests.

if there is additional evidence such as blockchain transactions, then it will strengthen the accusation that both accounts are operated by the same person.
I always believe that there is no coincidence for people to create very identical usernames even on different platforms. but for now, there is no additional evidence to convict both accounts.

OP if you don't want to discuss what you started, better lock this thread.
