It's not that simple. I talked with spinabros via email, and in my opinion he doesn't deserve all this. At least not anymore.

I think he is more than ready and willing to be accepted as a member of this community, and marking him forever with a "scarlet letter" is not the right solution.

Give him a break. You have not to play with him if you don't want to do it, but you could try anyway, just to see if now he's able to make you change your opinion

Beside the spinabros case, I'm not saying that all of you have to accept supinely a cheater if you encounter one. I'm simply saying that it's much better if you contact us instead of posting his name on the forum.

We are as motivated as you are to make this site a good place where to play, and we have many more possibilities to contact those people to inform them that someone doesn't like the way they are playing/cheating/whatever.

I'm not saying this is the ultimate solution to this matter, but trying this way won't be hurting anyone's feelings.

Thanks for your comprehension

I understand that the Webmasters may not want to, and probably should not, divulge the sum and substance of their email correspondence with Spinabros in the Forum, any more than any pilot would like to have their email correspondence with the Webmasters posted for all to see. I believe that it is important that the participants in the YouPlay.it community know that their communications with the Webmasters will remain confidential, especially regarding touchy matters such as this.

However, I also think that it is important to the YouPlay.it community that the truth be told, preferably by Spinabros. If he comes clean and admits to his deceitful actions, retires the doppelgangers, renounces any "records" procured by use of the doppelgangers in any manner, and apologizes in general to the YouPlay.it community, that would go a long way towards the removal of the "scarlet letter," which scarlett letter has been forcibly implanted on his/her/its forehead, in the eyes of the YouPlay.it community and he/she/it may find greater acceptance as a result.

Lastly, I see a "chilling" effect on YouPlay.it in reaction to this situation, which chilling effect will linger, perhaps indefinitely, without a clear resolution by the Webmasters and/or admission from Spinabros. Pilots may be hesistant to create open, multi-player games, for fear that Spinabros and his crew of doppelgangers will enter the game and then proceed to corrupt it. See game #114362. From my own perspective, I have noticed a marked decrease in the number of Blue Max games created in the last few days that are open to any pilots.

Just my opinion.
