Failing to deal with multi-accounting...
The last week or so it has become apparent that a high profile player on the site has been multi-accounting.
I reported this player and was told that they were already aware of this player and it was being investigated. A week has gone by and he is still there playing, presumably unaffected.
When I first has my suspicions about this player, I asked a number of other regulars for their views to see if it was just me seeing thing...everyone single one agreed.
To be honest tho this player has quite a one dimensional playing style so its not hard to spot, so unlike other multi-accounters he isn't gonna be getting any advantage over other regulars at the limits he plays as I would imagine that everyone has spotted him within an hour or so with playing him. However to the more casual player, who are the most important users of the Sky Poker site, it is a serious advantage.
I am dismayed and disgusted that Sky Poker has let this individual carry on using the site unaffected. I've been a loyal customer of Sky Poker ever since the start, and this is the first time I have felt this way about this site.
Live poker is something that I enjoy at least a couple of times/week. Whenever chatting to randoms I and someone goes 'do you play online' I only say good things about Sky Poker. And believe me Sky Poker is seen as a bit of a joke in the poker community. Well from now on my response will be something like 'Sky Poker is a good site however it clearly disregards fundamental parts of its terms and conditions, and basic standards or ettiquette, fair play and decency when it comes to certain players.'
Oh and I'm sure that you'll try and find a way to delete/move this thread but to my knowledge I have not mentioned any names or broken any forum rules. If I have then let me know and I'll edit out the offending sentence.

Why do you feel its your role and responsibility to take it upon yourself and tell everyone.
Sky have previously banned and seized funds from multi-accounters, so they clearly used to agree.
I'm not telling anyone the name of the individual. I'm letting Sky know my feelings on this issue.
If you don't care then fine, don't post in a thread about it.
SHIRLEY YOU JEST??????!?!
if you dont see anything wrong with multi-accounting then you should probably quit life
all i can see is two players playing the same style. one hasn't been seen in ages. one has come from nowhere to playing a sick volume.
Should of kept quiet and took your anger out on a anger ball or punch the wall if you wanted.
They are also from the same town too....
Oh and he won't play me HU on either account too. Maybe he has loaned the account from someone but it def is him. Theres way too many things that are identicial. And this new account has come from no where to playing X amount of tables for X amount per day.
Almost as blatent as that Tikay10/tikay1 fella!
Unless of course you started showing the exact same playing style, bet sizing, post flop play, and choice of games/buyin style then I'd have no idea about you and you'd have an advantage.
