Allow Donors to Scan Members

[GS]

This is kinda a feature on another site but I feel it could bring use to MCM. on the other site you press scan and it shows all accounts that were registered using that IP so you can see if someone is evading and make sure not to deal with em.

Our system is in abundance with false positives and requires human decision making to determine ban evaders. Giving tools to community members who don’t understand the system will sorely misrepresent a large amount of users. Many will be falsely accused of ‘evading’ or ‘alting’ when they aren’t.

I’d feel uncomfortable giving the tools to the community anyways. It lets people easily conduct research on how and what we use to determine ban evaders. This very information could assist ban evaders as they learn how to avoid the system.

Make a support request, or report a user direct should you suspect them. We’ll investigate their accounts and determine whether they are indeed evading, that’s a free service we offer to you guys.

Denied, thanks for the suggestion.
