Dear fellow AM-members,

since the beginning of world PW#2061 we are having some troubles with one particular member.
Some of you have also faced him in previous worlds.
He detroys everyones routes using 747's at a €1-fare and a multiple frequency.

Because of that behaviour, some specific rules were implemented in this world:
Minimum fare = €50
Maximum frequency = 1

Now, he puts up some 747's or 767's at €50 at 1 frequency or 2 0.5-frequencies, just to destroy everyones routes.

But that's not all.
He also changes his name into other players their name. For exemple:

His first name: Red Planet

When I came in, my airline was called Delta Air Transport
My username at that time was "Welcomediscoversmile".

As my airline was getting stronger and bigger, and Red Planet encountered some competition, he decided he had to change the name of his airline to "Welcomediscoverfrown".

Later, he became Delta Air Transportt (using two t's)
Because of that, I changed my name to Sabena World Airlines.
After that, he changed his to Sabena World Wide.
I've reported this to the staff of course, but he kept on going.

I finally changed my name to American Airlines.

All was fine after that, except for his stupid behaviour concerning the €50-fares on short routes using a 747 or 767.
But that's fine, that's his choice and it is allowed.

But, several times, he accused me of having multiple accounts.
This is definately not the case, and I've asked the AM-staff to have a look into this to confirm this.
Non of his accusations were correct.

This afternoon, at around 2 p.m. Belgian Time, I logged in and updated some routes.
I logged out and everything was fine.
Now, at around 8 p.m. this evening, Belgian Time, I log in and I notice that the name of my airline was changed to "Cabbagelines".

Not that I care, but the fact someone hacked my account, logged into my account and is able to do that, is something serious.
Because of the fact, this member purchases dozens of 747's just to ruin other members their routes, and the fact he has changed his name several times just to annoy me, he made himself a little suspicious.

I've again reported this to the staff.
But as it might take a while before I get any answers, I wanted this to share this on the forum aswell.

Not only myself, but also other members are getting sick and tired of this member's behaviour.

Hi Ewout - and everyone else reading this,

Please refrain from accusing fellow players in public, thanks. This issue has been dealt with, and we are currently in dialogue with both parts.

Thanks
