As I look through the map section I notice a pattern of spam from dark_lunatic_k. He basically has decided he hates everyone who said he stole Prod Clod's map and changed it into his own. In response he runs around the comment section rating all maps by people who have complained about his posting a stolen map on the site with 1's and of course claiming their map must be stolen... even with their maps are completely original. His newbish spam fills the map comments section and most of it really merits being deleted. In fact I would go so far as to say he might not even deserve the right to comment in the map section. He also has a second name of zergkilla18.
I've tried to ignore him over the months... but he is annoying and creating what I believe to be a problem in the community. His spam at the very least should be deleted from various map comment threads.
First off on my recently submitted map...
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?download=3007
This claim is utter crap and I can prove it if needed, I have all 11 versions of this map from my Pre-Beta on to 1.08B. He just said it was stolen because he doesn't like me and likes to spam lies.
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?download=2707
He even demands credit for making crappy suggestions not used in maps:
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?download=2703
I'm gonna cut my list short... I just listed some examples from the "tactical" maps section.
He also has a tendency to post maps that are not really all his own(mainly some variations of Prod_Clod's The Great War which he tries to claim credit for). He constantly spams maps myself, guntank and some others posts accusing them of being stolen and such simply because we told the truth about some of the maps he submitted that Prod made.
Secondly... examples of stolen maps posted by dark_lunatic_k
His WW1 Secret Armies map:
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?download=1799
His WW1 Kaiser's Fury map:
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?download=2414
Both stole off Prod_Clod's WW1 The Great War map. I mean he has a right to make his own crappy versions of maps if he wants I guess but the map descriptions should be at least edited to include their based originally on Prod_Clod's map and modified by him.
Another example of a stolen map, this one from 7ED's Napoleonic Diplomacy:
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?download=2042
On another note he has submitted three of his maps TWICE instead of just updating the older version... maybe delete the old submissions or something?
Kaiser's Fury, The African Theater and Normandy Western Collison are the maps in question he submitted twice.

Ok ive seen that pattern too...
Well ive seen the insults and the remarks lunatic has made and i have ignored him for quite a while, but just as BW said, he is just repeating his maps and posting them. I totally agree with BW

I'm going to need more evidence before action is taken. I have deleted his comments in the other sections, but to issue a ban I need the orginal maps of Prod_Clod's so the stolen maps can be deleted.
EDIT: Just a notice, its only for fair protection for everyone, so I can varify and compare maps. I don't go on a banning spree unless I can properly prove it.

I've seen this guy for a LONG time, he also hangs out in some of the channels I go to. He is a complete fag.

I know Prod_Clod and I have about 12 versions of his WW1 map... I'll get him in contact with you to clear it up.

Alright. Ask him to PM me.

I mass deleted his files earlier because he stole maps and uploaded them...
He had... zergling68 upload some in his name too... or something.
Just delete his files again and get rid of him. I know I could do it... but I'm lazy right now. I don't know why I didn't ban him from uploading files before... maybe I didn't have it scripted at the time, I dunno.

Yay, now I don't have to deal with all his gay maps (he's been submitting a lot of them).

Yes I have ran into a bit of his flaming problems that were directly towards me also. He is nothing but trouble.

Discovered double account and stolen maps. Actions taken against Zergkilla18 and Dark_Lunantic_k:
Deleted files submitted by those two. Deleted all comments. Deleted both accounts. Email banned. IP banned.
Apologies for the map makers and people of SEN for putting up with them.
The next thing is, I noticed that they submitted about 15 maps or something, all stolen. All now, deleted.
I encourage people to step up faster when they suspect a map is stolen, or they see a offensive comment. I WILL TAKE ACTIONS AGAINST THESE PEOPLE!

You can also message any of the DLDB Keepers, we can speed things up faster since there are more DLDB Keepers and we are easier to catch then the Admins.
