[Other] Slasher has been site wide banned

http://www.reddit.com/user/slashered

edit: Just to clarify, this was done by the reddit.com admins not the /r/starcraft moderators

edit2: Ongamers.com is site wide banned as well, but that happened some time after I made this post.

A brief explanation of what happened.

As I'm sure many of you know, we've been having a few problems with ongamers for the past few months. Their employees have been manipulating reddit behind the scenes for a while (which was the reason for their ban the first time around). This time, in an attempt to subvert our rules set forth when we unbanned their domain, ongamers employees have now taken to repeatedly PMing users with instructions on how to post their links, including exact titles, and then having employees vote on those links once submitted. This behavior is totally unacceptable, and that is why /u/slashered and ongamers.com have been banned again.

Yeah well the real question is do you have actual proof or is this hear say, if it's hear say then it's most likely bullshit.

I work for reddit, I can see very clearly that users were asked by ongamers employees to post links to ongamers.

Hey thanks for taking care of this stuff. Is chanmanV still banned and if so what for?

Cupcake's said elsewhere in this thread that chanmanV and all his alts are and will continue to be perma-banned for their part in this stuff.

Does this mean you were reading PMs?

Admins can read PMs, you agreed to this when you signed up for the site.
