If someone is banned for ban evasion from an account banned for scamming, it should be listed in the second ban notice.

Ex:

02.09.10k.png

02.09.10j.png


Would save a bit of time

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

what for? When someone see's they're banned for ban evading, all they need to know is that they're banned. Knowing the extra reason isn't that important considering you already know they're breaking the rules by evading in the first place and they broke some rule initially to get banned in the first place.

Don't see the point either. If you're planning to deal with someone who got banned, it's your own responsibility to do some research on them.
It usually says who they were ban evading as, so you can already look up what THAT person got banned for.

I think it would be really helpful to include this, especially on those accounts that have several accounts listed as their alts. For example, Yare (the example) was actually added to a Minecraft Resource chat I was in, and he was actively trying to scam as soon as he was in. I heard he was a scammer, so I spent a bit of time gathering proof, when this extra note would've solved everything in one screenshot. In addition, many people (including me) don't really bother to look up those who are banned when we're not personally dealing with them (such as browsing threads), so including this piece would definitely help spread awareness.

Maybe it is a small change, but I just think it would be better for people to be more aware of who's a scammer and who is not. Many people who have been banned for scamming are still active, and most people here don't restrict themselves to MC-Market, or even Minecraft. If people are able be aware of them and say "don't deal with him, he was banned for scamming from this one Minecraft forum", I don't think there's any harm in the mods practicing what I suggested. It would've saved my ass a couple times

A little bit annoying, but it usually doesn't take longer than a minute or to to copy the old username, find it, repeat if the guy alted lots of times, and eventually find the first account and probably the scam report.

Exactly, we don't have time to go looking though every ban evader and relisting their original ban reason.

It's a matter of you looking into one person vs. us looking into every single person we ban.

Generally you should never do a deal with anyone who is banned from MC-Market. If they were banned it is for a reason, whether it's scamming or something else I don't think it really matters.

It isn't really possible or realistic for us to go through each and every person banned for multiaccounting and changing it either.
