Default Degen/Rakeaid.com/Rakereport.net Banned

After much debate I have banned Degen and related aliases from all of 2+2. This is related to his behavior in A/R as well as other forums here at 2+2.

The short version is PM spaming and abusive posting. Degen created accounts specifically to PM spam people rakeback offers and he has engaged in feuds with other affiliates here that you guys would know more about than me.

When Degen was called out as being Rakeaid he attacked the poster that questioned him. His posts were abusive towards this affiliate. He also went overboard here in attempting to expose this other affiliate when a sub was violating T&C's of a poker room. Degen even went so far as to threaten to contact the IRS to snitch on this affiliate that exposed him. This was not the first time he was banned from A/R. He also threatened me in a PM which he later apologized for. The affiliate he attacked was a great contributed and AFAIK this poster has not returned.

Also Rakeaid posts were reduntant and mostly useless IMO. Degen has since misbehaved in other 2+2 forums. I wanted to ban him a month ago when he was taking cheap shots at his competitors and spamming here, now that he has caused trouble in other areas of 2+2 it was agreed that banning was the best action.

I certainly agree that he has contributed to interesting topics at 2+2 but has also crossed the line on many occasions.

You just banned one of the best posters on 2+2.

I am never posting in or reading this forum again.

Hi,

While I'm not interested in being involved in the middle of this debate, I recently acquired his site RakeReport.net (link to thread about this here )

I was expecting to have access to the RakeReport.net 2+2 forum account in conjunction with our transaction, although I had not made use of this account just yet.

Please let me know if this will be something possible to have turned over to my control, or if I should only post about this type of stuff using my Grandgnu account?

I received notice of this because I have control of the rakereport@gmail.com account that was associated with the 2+2 account in question.

I'm very serious. It sounds like you made the decision to me, as in you could have stopped it.

Do a check on Degen's 7,000 posts. How many of them were in this forum? You are a fool.

Degen has no less than five 100 post threads going on 2+2 right now, and one that is over 1,500 posts long and the longest active thread in the most popular forum on 2+2. He quite literally makes this site money! Every time he makes a post people flock to it, and for good reason.

Just give him a stern warning and a suspension, I'm sure he'll stop doing whatever you want him to stop doing. The guy is a great poster.
