Yes, here is a big tip. Don't sockpuppet on deals. You have now earned yourself a spot in our lovely penalty box.

  What's sockpuppet btw? Never knew lol
  - neil on 02/07/2010 - 23:27
    
    It's basically fraudenlent or artificial voting/commenting/posting.
    For example: I open 4 accounts, 1 submits the deal, the other 3 vote for the deal.
    Or…BlahCompany submits deal and other employees vote on the deal.
    Or..say I own a business but post pretending I'm a customer.
    Or you vote on a deal without declaring your affliation. So we recently had a deal with artificial votes from the posters partner.
    
    But in this case, we probably wouldn't have caught the sockpuppeting if the OP hadn't started this thread. Nice one and welcome!

        @bob_wangkar: mods usually go on hunches/reports then click a few buttons to a sort of 'user report' page.
        
        respect to neil for even noticing the guy is a sockpuppet :P

It's easy to spot he was a fake. If he was a real new user he would've asked us to "please be nice/gentle"! ;-)

  you just bumped a month old post, and your method isn't that reliable. lol
  - daydream on 09/08/2010 - 12:45
    
    Yes, I know it's oldish (we can still add comments) but I hadn't seen it before ;-)
- Davo1111 on 09/08/2010 - 10:53

perhaps we need a wiki for epic threads.

  Nice. Found an error though. You missed this comment http://bit.ly/NewNegRecord .
- daydream on 09/08/2010 - 12:51
  
  ..and the condom post from COTD for contributions generated/entertainment value: http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/28152 ;-)
  - Livert on 09/08/2010 - 12:57
    
    Let’s not forget the unpublished April fool’s Russian bride deal :P maybe a mod can lock the thread and republish it?
Davo1111 on 09/08/2010 - 14:08

    my question: was it really necessary to bump a 7 month old thread?
    - hfhf on 26/03/2011 - 03:23

superheoric on 26/03/2011 - 03:05
