They 9/10 times use there IF email for official things. - Burner

If it's really him, he'll unban himself apparantly. Go him.

Though I do make it clear its me and tell the person to pm me on IF Support for confirmation since I can't touch tickets.

Support before Beer Posts: 329 Group: Members Member #43,986 Joined: February 7, 2005	XD More of this I think people should be told this right when they make thier boards that no one from invision free will contact them through anyway other than correct channels and that these things can be checked via support ticket. But this also leadss to what you guys to to people who impersonate say Duffman do you like ban them from the server or what.

It tells you this right on the front page of the ACP. Quote: Do not give admin access to anyone claiming to be an InvisionFree staff member. The only time you should is if they ask for it via the Support board. Following these instructions will protect your board from someone trying to gain access. It could only be clearer if it was in gigantic red text[/color]. Perhaps it could be placed at the bottom of an e-mail sent out when you register your board but I'm willing to bet it would do little really. :/
