View Full Version : Ban Ghett0?

I'm tired of wasting energy on this, so I'll just get it out in the open and let you guys decide. A bunch of people say we should ban him for good. If there's strong enough reason, I'll consider it.
Pros
Interested in Tetris and wants to learn more
Fairly active player
Cons
Constantly accused of being a liar
Tends to flame the place up
Accused of breaking the forum's TOS in regards to age.
I don't like "modding" unless it's completely necessary and definitely in the best interest of the forum and its purpose. If you ask me, banning active Tetris players that want to improve ain't really my thing.
He's mainly funny to watch and poke when he's on IRC, but there's a reason we keep him out in the Blockstats chatroom and not in #arika. Too much attention and it just gets tiresome. With the whole 55fps thing this is starting to look more and more like trolling, cause he loves the attention.

the only problem i really have is when he answers questions without really knowing what he's talking about. sometimes it's obvious he's made it up, but i'm sure it isn't always obvious to the person asking the question. sure everybody gives bad information sometimes, but we try to have the right answer before speaking up, and in many cases we back it up with info from the wiki or some other reputable source.
when somebody responds with information to a topic they don't know anything about, it seems to me like they just want attention.
btw, did someone saw him playing heboris netplay ?

i think it's comments like this that people don't appreciate:
Okay, fine, believe what you want to believe, but it's 55 fps.
when you speak with such a level of certainty, you really need some strong evidence in your favor. if the vast majority of people believe something is correct, and these people have a lot of experience in the particular area, it probably is. it's counter-productive to argue when you don't have anything concrete to hold your argument up, and it serves as a distraction and an annoyance.

Ghett0 seems like an interesting enough player, and he is a Tetris player after all, so he has the right to be here.
Besides with Ghett0 around it makes me look less ignorant.

Definitely no as well..
His behaviour will become nicer by the time..He will adapt himself litle by little..And yes, we will know very soon if his score are fakes or not in analysing oug battle with him..If he can got at least 6 - 10 against me, I will believe that he is 99% honnest..

I voted yes, he has been acting like this since he registered on the forum and despite many reprimands and chances to better himself - he hasn't changed one bit.
Ghett0 still hasn't destroyed anything. He is annoying, probably because of age differences.
I which there was a way to make him realize the issue at hand.
I voted, "yes, but give him a month", because I know how evil a ban really is, and how it can turn bad guys into the worst. And Ghett0 isn't a bad guy.
Please consider a special group with posting limitation, so he can still follow tc's development, and maybe in the future he'll decide to come back and behave. Banning should only be used when there is a threat of security, or extreme behaviour.

The thing is, he already did get banned for ~a month once.. and it didn't work.
If the previous ban didn't work, what makes you think this one will?

Don't worry Ghetto, I am sure you will stay here..I would be very disappointed by TC if you were fired..
I know that NoTghost appreciate you, I will ask her his voice..
The only one thing you have to do is : staying a bit more quiet, less excited, continu to submit some score even if lot people, (like me) have some doubt, one day, things will calm down.
I honnestly think that the majority of your scores are true, and a little number are fakes..
The heboris net is a revolution which will allow us to see who are honnest and who are not..
Anyway, it is not too late for you to recover a good behaviour..
In my opinion you are far to be unsupportable..

I voted yes, simply because I don't buy his record posts, and I frankly don't find any reason to keep him here from his posts on general discussion.
To be honest, even if he came clean about his records, I still would struggle to believe any honest ones he might post. The record is just too tarnished for me to really give a crap any more.
Despite his irritating nature on here, it's really his faked scores and runs that annoy me to the point where I'd want him gone.

I can do the 100 meters @ 13:8

It is just for the exemple : if I come to some friends and tell :
"oh oh OH !! I beaten my record !! 10:7 !!"
nobody will believe me..
It is exactely the same thing you did here..
Actually, my doubt began when I saw your S9 on texmaster, at this moment, I thought, you were an average player, not very confident, with a medium or even bad stacking skill, and a good using of the hold..
1 week later you submit a sudden ti at 4xx (don't remember), with a impossible (or VERY surprizing) improvement ..
Another strange detail is your best sudden ti 300, "close" to kotetsu's and DIGITAL's, I thought at this moment :
"hmm..strange, ghetto is now able to reach 300 as fast as me.."
And the worst have been with your video on Heboris, perfect skill, manual lock at 500, double rotation combined with IHS..Exactely the kind of cheating you can do with a slow motion at 80% or less..
Anyway..I am very septic since this last one on Heboris..

Yes, because it's fairly evident you aren't "really good at Heboris".
Remember about two and a half months ago when you couldn't pass the Heboris G4 torikan? And now you're almost clearing it in the same time that it took you to hit the torikan?
It's rediculous improvement like that that has everyone crying foul.
Even with tetlag, you'd still see a fairly consistent performance across a few different situations--for instance, in my case, despite how my much SRS skills are much better than my ARS skills, I've still got S8 in TGM1 and S7 in TAP alongside my Master in HeboG4.
In other words, your extreme level of improvement suggests only two possibilities: cheating, or TASing. While the latter is entertaining (look at TASvideos if you don't believe me), trying to compare a TASed score to a realtime score is essentially the equivalent of cheating.
Just my cent and a quarter.

I voted no. I can not tell you whether or not Ghetto's records are legit but i still believe that it should be innocent until proven guilty. TC relies a great deal on the honor system as far as records go so it seems best to just have people post records and if they choose to lie then that is up to them. I can understand people's frustration with him and i hope that if Ghetto is not banned that he thinks carefully before every post.
I relatively new to TC myself and I advise you, as someone who would rather not see you banned, try to be polite in your posts and use others as an example of what is acceptable behavior on TC. I really have no problem with you being here but you have brought a lot of negative attention on yourself. I hope you aren't banned though.

The thing is, Ghett0 has already abused the honour system. He's posted a TAS before, initially saying it was real before admitting it was a cheat.
If someone like Jujube or mufunyo or Kitaru showed such a massive improvement over such a tiny space of time, I'd be pretty amazed by it. Maybe some suspicion would creep in, but I'd probably accept their scores as valid because their track record is clean.
Ghett0 doesn't have that luxury. I'm not prepared to give the benefit of the doubt to someone who has already done the same thing before. And it's a pretty huge doubt. Not that age is all important, but he's nine years old, and has gone from where I was 12 or 18 months ago to being a better player than I am. In the space of a few weeks.
All things considered, I'm just not going to buy that.

Ghett0 doesn't have that luxury anymore..
Just to bring people up to speed a bit on this.
I am picking on no-one. And I only lied ONCE.
This is a lie in its own, here are a couple of lies from the top of my head:
He posted a thread where he said he had added support for Ti into mame, and a bit down in the thread he confidently stated the following:
I just cracked the security.
Then we have the time where he said he was a TA Death GM..
Level 999 with a 5:23. See avatar for proof.
He later admitted that it was a TAS.
And on the subject of mutiplayer TDS strategies..
My strategy is T-spin triples (I can pull them off fast as heck) and then I either go for another or start tetrising.
He busted his own lie here, with the following video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoI4byI059k
It is, in fact, quite slow.. and he would've topped out already against a good player.
Then we have a case of him slowing down the game, and only later stating that he did. He doesn't trust the game and instead he's modding the game to adhere to "facts" he have made up or read somewhere (or so he says).
< Ghett0> The original machines ran at 55 fps
<Ghett0> So I set it to that.
And don't forget the time when he changed the grading in Heboris so that he would get a higher grade. First he sent us replays thinking that him getting an M4 in his hacked version would mean that it would show up as M4 for us too.. but it showed up as S4. Then he went through the trouble of making videos of it
<Ghett0> Part 2 of my M4 video is done
<Ghett0> http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=rF2eWxmTT-k
And we could clearly see that it was an S4 run, but it changed into M4 at the end. Unfortunately he has since removed said video from youtube to hide this - but there are many of us who remember this.
Then there's this:
<M3-Ghett0> I have a friend, see
<M3-Ghett0> Who works for Taito
<M3-Ghett0> And has the decryption key for Type X machines
<M3-Ghett0> >_L>
<M3-Ghett0> *>_>
<M3-Ghett0> <_<
<M3-Ghett0> And well
<M3-Ghett0> I have MAME
<M3-Ghett0> and I have a friend with Ti
There are so many lies there I don't know where to start..
And this:
Okay, I just got level 500 for the SECOND time in TI sudden, and there aren't any replays.
Texmaster records replays automatically, either he went through the replay list to delete both replays manually.. or he's lying. Ghett0 lying? Gee.. I wonder.
Again, these are all just from the top of my head.. he has a really long history of lying his way through the forum and on IRC so frankly I don't believe a word he's saying anymore.
Ghett0: If you haven't already.. you should go and read The Boy Who Cried Wolf (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_boy_who_cried_wolf). It's a good fable and I think you can learn a whole lot from it.

I hope the voting are not faked as well by some admin..
The evolution of the YES/NO is suspect..
I hope the good decision will be taken, because Ghetto is not a very bad man who always cheat, and then it would be cruel regarding the other potential cheater who are unknown..
because nobody, except myself, can prove that I can really reach the Master m rank..I also can make run slower my emulator and give the inp to petitprince..Kotetsu can also break the torikan a lot of time on sudden ti in cheating..
WHO CAN PROVE IT ??
There is a lot of detail which are not taken in consideration..
How old is Ghetto ? 9 ? 12 ?
The intellectual improvement capacities of the human are a lot more developped at this age..It is a lot longer to improve at 20 or 24 years old..So his suspect improvement is NOT really impossible..
Please, try to organize some accurate battles with him..If me, Bou, Rosti, and other "Key" players fight with him, we will have the true idea about his skill..Don't forget that I can quietly analyse his game when Bou fight with him..

Amnesia, I agree that with the honour system we can't really prove any scores are genuine, but I still don't think that matters horribly.
I mean, most of us could cheat, but the majority of the people here have played multiplayer games on Heboris Mini, or Tetris DS, or TetriNET at some point or another, and they're pretty good markers for if someone is blatantly lying. Same for meeting people in real life.
I do find it slightly ironic that if ghett0 had maybe not made his original TAS's and admitted to them being fake, then we would perhaps believe him now, but that isn't the point. If you know a score is false then it's wrong to put it on the scoreboard under the guise that other scores may be false as well.
I don't care how old he is. Maybe a young mind can learn faster than an older one, but I still don't think a mind can learn THAT much faster.
And it'd be easier to arrange battles if he was willing to have them, but strangely he's not too keen.

I'll battle anytime anywhere, as long as there's no lag.

That's like saying you'll have a drinking contest but only if you don't get drunk. There's always lag. Electrons have to travel hundreds or thousands of miles to deliver gameplay data from players to the server and back. So I'll count that as dodging a challenge. If you're not a good enough player to handle lag, it means you're probably a worse player than I am, and I admit I'm really bad (and my records show that).

Necroing a thread that is relevant to my interests. More than a month has passed, and the tally is:
Ban Ghett0?
Yes, yes and yes (56%) [ 26 ]
No (43%) [ 20 ]
Total Votes : 46
caffeine, final decision is up to you. You could leave the poll open for longer but I doubt things will change much.
cdsboy
05-21-2008, 05:05 AM
Since it has been necro'd, i'm going to bring up the point that the general consensus was the since option no winning, and each of the 3 other option were spread out. Technically speaking no won. Also, your right a month has passed and during that month he proved (to me atleast) that the one reason i had for banning him was not really true. I personally voted yes, and give him one month. So if we're going to bring up the topic of ghett0 getting banned again, i'd have to say its only fair if we have a new vote, that runs for a set amount of time. And after that set amount of time we decide once and for all.
cdsboy, if there was one option for "yes" and three options for "no", and the three "no"s combined had more votes than "yes", then by your reasoning "yes" would win because the votes for "no" would be spread out. Spot the flaw in that?
I would say the "concensus" here is yes, and from the three options available, deleting his records is the most popular. Why vote on stuff again when it's already clear?
cdsboy
05-21-2008, 05:17 AM
Ok let me restate. 8 people voted to give him a month. Without the 8 votes for the month, since we can't know their adjusted votes, it would be 18 for yes, and 20 for no. No would still win. So i feel, to fairly decide we would need a new vote because this one has outlasted its scope.
Red_Star
05-21-2008, 07:27 AM
I think the fact this thread died was a sign that the general concensus didn't care anymore.
To be honest, I really love coming onto TC because I love tetris but the amount of garbage posts being aimed at demeaning Ghetto i think has really blemished up this forum. Attacking someone for being under 18 is ridiculous, especially when the forum is about a videogame. I'm under 18 and yet I still seem to comprehend what common courtesy people deserve. In no way am I trying to aim at anyone with this post. I am merely saying that people should try to focus more on tetris and less on trying to take on a 9 year old ( I think that is how old people said he was, my apologies if I got your age wrong Ghetto). My apologies if I have angered anyone this is merely my feelings on it.
In might not be my place to suggest anything but i would like to put forth the idea that this thread be closed. There has been plenty of time for people to cast their votes and voice their opinions on the matter.

Well, I personally think that all members should be over the age of 13.
Most forums work that way.

For like the hundredth time, yes.
Unless someone can give a reason to me as to what Ghett0 provides that makes up for the vast amount of annoyance and unrest he causes, I won't see why he should stay.
If we start getting Ghett0 v Amnesia ultimatums, there's only one person I would ever pick to stay.

sad to say the site could get in trouble for even letting a 9 year old kid on. It' sunlikely to happen, but....

I don't think he has the maturity to be on this forum.
All of his potentially forged/TASed records aside, he frequently posts either tactlessly, carelessly, uselessly, or the like. He also has the tendency to be very abrasive and disrupt the usually pleasant atmosphere of the forums.
In addition, he frequently posts crap that we've all found not to be true and claims it as fact. (TI MAME and the TI GM requirements come immediately to mind)
Also, just want to address something else:
To be honest, I really love coming onto TC because I love tetris but the amount of garbage posts being aimed at demeaning Ghetto i think has really blemished up this forum. Attacking someone for being under 18 is ridiculous, especially when the forum is about a videogame. I'm under 18 and yet I still seem to comprehend what common courtesy people deserve. In no way am I trying to aim at anyone with this post. I am merely saying that people should try to focus more on tetris and less on trying to take on a 9 year old ( I think that is how old people said he was, my apologies if I got your age wrong Ghetto). My apologies if I have angered anyone this is merely my feelings on it.
Here's my stance on this: I think some people are being more lenient on him because of his age. Put it this way: if anyone else were posting in such a disruptive manner, lying, being abrasive, etc. etc. etc., would they not have been banned by now? If we want to treat him fairly, then fine. We'll throw age completely out of the equation. I still think his behavior is disruptive and that alone makes it difficult to convince me that he should stay.
In summary: I don't think he should stay, at least not until he can get his act cleaned up and stop with all of the useless/obviously false/TASing/etc/etc/etc crap.
My three quarters of a cent.

I'd ban him if I thought he was cheating (trying to pass TASes off as real or whatever), but he's listed on a lot of record threads, so that must mean that those thread creators don't think he cheated.

Or they feel that it isn't within their jurisdiction to decide who the honour system accepts and refuses. I think if you personally asked each one the result would be different.
??? Confused

If there was a situation where someone said "Either Ghett0 leaves or I leave" (which isn't something I consider to be likely) then I would pick ghett0 hands down to leave.
I picked your name purely because it was the first one that came to mind.

An ultimatum is a demand backed up by a threat. The "v" stands for "versus".
Might Ghett0 want to take a two-week break like I did at the end of January (http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=887)?

Even though his age is brought up as reason enough alone, even a 4 year break wouldn't benefit him. He's persistently been a liar, a cheat, and a mediocre tetris player and I really don't see that changing anytime soon. His recent behaviour is enough to make me regret my vote, and want to change it to "permaban the fuck out of this waste of bandwidth".

"for some reason"
i guess you've forgotten what that reason is. i thought your TASing was in the past, but just a few weeks ago you were trying to trade texmaster TAS secrets to somebody for whatever. i don't want to get into specifics, but you know what i'm talking about. why would you say something like that, then expect people to believe your scores are real? combine that with your big jumps in skill over a short period of time and yeah i'm suspicious.
i tried to help you setup hebo netplay again (which was working for you in the past). i spent 30 minutes a few days ago and another 20 minutes last night, and you're still showing on the server as using the wrong version number. unless you've deleted the pm's i've sent, you have the download link for beta8 and one for my network.ini file which is all you need to get it working like you did before, so you can play with people using the current version. if it's so important to you to be on the leaderboard, don't you want to play against some people and prove all of this TAS talk (which you started again out of the blue) is just a bad joke?

If I had got the section cools that I missed, I would've been GM.

They aren't Tex TAS secrets. It's something very well know called Cheat Engine.
@Jago : I am well aware of it showing up as MK. How ever, there was a glitch DIGITAL was speaking about in another thread that causes the grade to show up one less at the end of the game/replay.

For the record, I still think he should get banned. He hasn't done anything to change my opinion since this thread started. We have busted him cheating and lying countless times and he still hasn't as much as apologized for his behaviour or even amditted to any wrongdoing.
So yeah, he clearly isn't interested in bettering himself. And hence, I'm not interested in keeping him around - on the contrary I quite strongly feel he shouldn't be around.
