Hey, I was just looking at the ratings breakdown of THE PSYCHEDELIC ENSEMBLE's Mother's Rhymes when I happened to notice three ratings from the same person using three different accounts: one Alain Succo from Lyon, France. Is this legal (i.e. in line with PA rules and guidelines?) 

In order to perhaps save you some time, I'll try uploading the two screen shots I took of all three of his accounts ratings lists at once:

Also, I noticed that Alain's last visits are listed as "8/22/2015", "2/20/2015", and "9/4/2017" and yet Mother's Rhymes, which Alain rated three stars on all three of his accounts, was a 2019 release. How does that work? 

Just seeking clarity. Thanks.

Thanks Drew.

...and some ratings on 2020 releases like Pattern Seeking Animals.

Interesting. I've noticed some peculiar time stamp issues with other users as well. Can't say I have an easy answer to that.

What is really bizarre about him is he gives different ratings to the same album.

Well, I think I have an easy answer: the date shown is for the last visit on the forum, not on the main site or for album ratings.

I agree this is confusing, but it's the answer anyway... Wink

But now, next question: why does this Alain Succa use 3 accounts? His ratings seems legit and "varied" I would say...

^Having more than one account is strictly forbidden. Particularly when they are used to give ratings. Varied or not.

Accounts suspended and ratings removed.

The date question: it has always been my understanding that the forum date and site date are independent. Does not appear to be the case.

^ That's why I'm wondering why...

What's his motive?

OK, maybe we don't want to know... and maybe I watch too much detective TV shows. Ermm

^I thought it might be to deflect any suspicion of a role in 9/11. But my sleuthing determined he is from France, so its probably more to do with the Lindbergh baby.

There was also that "pwog" guy who used to talk about bins at British resellers.

and there is that banned Canadian hard core right winger that pops up every once in awhile and always blows his cover when he talks politics in the thread. He's had so many ID's he might just rival our favorite Milosevic apologist for shear number of forum ID's he's had.

There is a difference: Wallace / Knobby / Wallace_the_Lad / jacksiedanny / Lafayette Assburn / jamy / [some more?] was a serial multiple account user, who signed up again some time after his last suspension, while Svet / Komandant Shamal / ??? had parallel accounts.
