This only works if the account in question still has the correct e-mail address attached. It's quite likely that the hacker will change not only the password but also the e-mail so the owner has no idea that they have lost the account until they try to log in. Sending an e-mail to the hacker only allows the hacker to further impersonate the original member.

On a side note, in all likelyhood it probably is caveatipse but is also a possibility that it is not. Anybody can sign a post with "~caveatipse" and why would he sign his first post in this thread so everyone would know who it was? I've only been on this site for a couple months and I know his reputation already. If a person wanted to mess with this site, who better to impersonate. Caveatipse may not be this sites only problem child...

Just for fun I googled "Caveatipse" ...member name came up in several forums on just the first page. Guess he's making a career out of it.

This board is awesome, it has schizophrenic members. Nice.

Seriously, when mods take an action on an account for any reason I would think the best thing to do for all involved is to take the time to send the account owner an email instead of leaving them wondering what the heck just happened.

They do get an email notifying them of the ban, but only if the email address is valid.

good question!

Maybe we could call it the "Official Troll-in-here-if-you're-gonna-troll" thread?

Or something like that?
