[8:49] jline123: Hey crocobot, can I ask you a question?
[8:49] crocrobot: yes
[8:49] crocrobot: but first, let's talk about your ban
[8:49] crocrobot: what's going on buddy?
[8:50] jline123: my ban?
[8:50] crocrobot: c'mon bro
[8:50] jline123: Yes that’s what I wanted to talk about, I set an account up for my wife and she tried to play lastnight but it said she was banned
[8:51] crocrobot: sure it's not your son?
[8:51] jline123: the “go down” account?
[8:51] jline123: i set it up for my wife and she can’t play
[8:51] crocrobot: N-N DMT
[8:52] crocrobot: "It appears my son and his friend were on my account. I willI will discuss this with him and make sure it doesn’t happen again. Thank you for bringing this to my attention"
[8:52] crocrobot: c'mon man, let's get real here
[8:53] jline123: Yes that was an issue that I resolved. I was just wondering why my wife’s account was banned.
[8:53] crocrobot: rank manipulation
[8:53] crocrobot: pretty blatant too
[8:54] crocrobot: like, not even close to subtle
[8:54] jline123: She is a beginner?
[8:54] jline123: she is probably less than 25k
[8:54] crocrobot: is she though? she is crushing other beginners and then resigning
[8:55] crocrobot: some relatively sophisticated capture races, followed by a resign
[8:55] crocrobot: or, play a few moves, then time out
[8:55] crocrobot: i ask you again, c'mon man
[8:55] crocrobot: we're friends by this point
[8:55] crocrobot: let's talk
[8:56] jline123: I still don’t understand. I was showing her how to play. I didn’t want to win those games and make her rank up
[8:56] jline123: that would be rank manipulation
[8:57] crocrobot: okay, can i ask you a question?
[8:57] jline123: sure
[8:58] crocrobot: why would you use your wife's account to crush beginners, then resign, when you had this account?
[8:59] jline123: Well she logged on with her iPad and sat next to me and asked me how to play, so I showed her. She asked why I was resigning too and I told her it wasn’t fair to the other players that I was playing on her account
[9:00] jline123: so after that we used my account. I played some games showing her what to do and what not to do
[9:00] jline123: if you look at my last few games you can see I made amateur mistakes to teach her what she shouldn’t be doing
[9:01] jline123: So because of me, she’s not allowed to play go on this site ever again?
[9:01] crocrobot: i'll have to confer with the other mods
