shaniac,
I only play a couple tourneys a year so it really doesn't affect me. But your refusal to out known cheaters is somewhat of a cheat by you since you know when to be leary of such a multiple presence on a table but other 2+2'ers here don't. So you benefit by that knowlege and refuse the benefit of it to them, as well as the benefit of stopping it.
Plus most importantly, your inaction is what enables those cheaters to continue cheating and damage the reputation of online poker for integrity that we all depend upon to garner a stream of newer players.
Shame on you for your cowardice.
And note that I am not condemning the practice of multiple accounts for the purpose of masking one's play from dataminers when such a person with same never attempts to login on more than one account at a time and play.

How many people do you know that smoke pot or do any type of drugs. Doing that is actually against the law. How many of you are going to call the police and alert them to the fact that these people are doing drugs?
Many arguments can be made for snitching on these people. You can say that the usage and purchase of illegal drugs indirectly leads to the deaths of many innocent people when those drug abusers drive while under the influence or while there is a drug related shooting that harms an innocent bystander. Yet you know what, I bet everyone whom is part of this thread knows at least one person who does something against the actual law of whatever country they are living in, and yet sits by and does nothing about it. (by no means am I suggesting that you should actually do this, just an example)
btw I personally would turn someone in if I knew they were still cheating. If I knew that they maybe did this multiaccounting thing one or two times and realized that they were wrong, and made no serious profit while doing so, then I probably wouldn't say anything, as long as I was under the belief that they wouldn't do it in the future.
This is not a black and white issue and everyone who is making it sound like it was, is really closed minded IMO.
Also everyone keeps implying that I have known about ZJ for a long period of time. I haven't. It's been a very short period of time, yet it was before this thread became public.
