I just modded the OP down, the last thing we need is more of this bullshit in the forum.

It's a freaking high score table for nefarious deeds.

mrmarioanonym: don't insult us Aspergers. we are more well-adjusted than that.
some of us are a bit impulsive at times, but most of us are actually pretty honest people who'd never dream of scamming others. in fact, we often worry too much, because contrary to popular belief, we are not apathic, we are overly empathic and have to dial it back for our own good.
Sorry, I didn't want to insult anybody and I absolutely know that most of them are absolutely honest (I worked with them for years). It's just that many of them had problems to understand other people's feelings and emotions and often reacted in strange ways (at least strange when you didn't know them).

Once again: Hope you are not offended by what I've said.

I would recommend not communicating to the trollish scammer. Thanks for the updated list!

I wonder if it would be possible for GOG-folk to actually tag the person's avatar as "scammer" who appear on the list. And perhaps even "possible scammer" from known scammer IPs.

How about banning the damn accounts when they are willingly admitting to such behavior? Crazy idea, huh?

mrmarioanonym: Known Scammers Mach Two
At first, I wondered if this was a joke or mistake, as here we'd say Mark Two (or more likely, Mark II). But it effectively means "second make", and I reckon mach is some form of the verb to make in German. That is, maybe Mach Two is based on correct German usage.

Is Mach Two (Mach Zwei or Mach II) something you'd say in German to describe a second version? Or is this just an interesting homophone?

It's basically just an excuse for questionable accusations to be thrown around, people getting their panties in a wad because of the negging and a way of trolls getting their names on a score board.

It's beyond me why GOG allows this sort of filth on the forum. Most of these problems would go away if people would stop trading with people they don't know. And some of the accusations aren't even wrong, regardless of whether the person did it or not.

It's something we would use to describe a velocity of 680.58 m/s (2 times the speed of sound, or 2160 feet per second for the US crowd here :P).

In America and Britain, mark and mach are said differently, and in each place, they aren't really convincing homophones. But, the British pronunciation of 'mark' is very similar to the American pronunciation of 'mach'.

Pronunciations here:
http://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/pronunciation/english/mark_1
http://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/mach

My own scrambled accent is typically recognized as English by Americans, and as American by Brits. So what catches my interest may leave others scratching their heads.

At sea level.

it means "I Am The Walrus" in gobbledeegook, don't overthink it. You can get bruises that way. Sooner or later you'll smash your head against the wall in frustration and exclaim "oh why oh why did i not shy away from thinking about the thread title". And then: your head asplode! Proofraeders bee gon.
