1. No
Is that being looked into?
What? The fact that users are allowed to form and express their own opinions about other users? No, that is not being looked into.
2. Willows is not currently banned.
Have you asked ethang5 why Willows will make a second account when his original account is still active?
No, why would I?
My only interest is if they are the same users then one of the accounts needs to be disabled to comply with alternate account rules.
Don't you already check people's IPs.
When the need arises, the head moderators can check IPs, yet. It is not a routine thing, no.
What data could ethang5 give in order to convince you otherwise?
A public post where Salixes says they are Willow.
If it is PM then wouldn't that mean ethang5 will be banned for sharing that information or maybe you will ban him for even accepting that before receiving that information. Don't know how you enforce that.
I don't know if it is in a PM, at the moment I haven't even asked for the info, I asked if it was public.
