RussellSproutz Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Yesterday the MOGGER case reached a verdict after 4+ Months. This user (MOGGER) has been found to repeatedly offer unbalanced trades to new users. Be cautious when they offer on your items and always check the value of items you trade. You can join our forums or discord for trading advice at any time. - Zeussie Link to case: https://backpack.tf/issue/654554c55fb73bdbd4026d42 Ngl I thought it would get rejected, but I stand corrected, I have faith in Backpack once more. I'm sure others thought MOGGER would face worse repercussions. This probably will be the best outcome. I know he has the right to appeal of course. I guess we'll see what happens then. Best of luck. Feedback as always is welcome. Have a good Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sincerely thought it was a good thing y'all gave out the verdict tbh. Thought I'd share it with the community as I know only a couple hundred were watching the tracker Edit: sorry didn't mean to come off like condescending on the forums and what not and with the issue tracker. I just thought after four months, it would have been a ban instead of a premium ban. I know people also thought this should have been worse, but I know that this was a very grey area case. I myself, trying to be unbiased as possible, thought it was the best outcome for all involved though Ironic given my track history as well.

Yeah real Moggers in this aspect is a small trader compared to me lol And in the aspect of taking of him taking advantage of the small traders as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRenegadeSniper Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 47 minutes ago, OverduePixels said: Hiya, what is the point of this post? Please explain. The real question is what is the point of half of Russell's posts at this point. He's our glorified news reporter for shit nobody cares about. In the past week alone I've gotten updates on: -Random sketchy websites people shouldn't be using being hacked -Him selling his bonk boy collection -How I got a Salvaged Crate 40 and 2 Scorched Crates for Free! -Discussion on Reinstating the Rule Regarding Obvious Alt Accounts and Backpack-Banned Scammers when there's an open thread about this already. No offense, but is there not a rule for this stuff? I feel like he's just engagement farming at this point.

No offense, but is there not a rule for this stuff? I feel like he's just engagement farming at this point. Doubt it. You should check the discussion for rules with trading with scammers again though I pushed for the reform on that, which resulted in Sin putting in the discussion for the current open thread that has been ongoing about 1.5 weeks ago: Edit: Oh I'm also a small Youtuber as a hobby while I study for school, I do upload stuff. I should probably clip the videos in forums like the other YouTubers who do it such as Fitz. Or I can post some reddit stuff here like Yahi.

This is forums. We talk and discuss here. The best I could get warned about is spam, which I did last week about a viral reddit post dealing with LGBT. Tbh the warning should've been about bigotry. Anyways , I'll be serious about this topic. I'm sure we've all been waiting for this issue tracker on MOGGER and this result after 4 whole months, I'm satisfied with it.

Dominant Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 I am surprised, but glad with this outcome. Does this mean admins have the power to work around the rules and ban when deemed reasonable based on their own judgement? More questions: Is case law is a thing on backpack.tf? Should the rules still be clearified? Anyhow, I am glad this person got what they deserved and that technicalities did not hinder the decision. This is progress. On another note; it would be cool if not every comment is about Russel. RussellSproutz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey actually, cut him some slack a bit. I don't check the issue tracker everyday (nor the discord), and i wouldn'tve noticed the mogger case actually reached a verdict if it weren't for this forum post.
