Thread renewed due to the "No posts exist for this topic" bug. Here's the old one for future references:
http://metal-archives.com/board/viewtopic.php?t=15096

Report here any suspicious updates like adding the same link to several bands in a row.

Here are some useful links:

Continuation from the last thread, with even more links this time!

http://metal-archives.com/userprofile.p ... onsorrow74
Adding links to the main page of metalvinyl.es as Official Merchandise - the site doesn't have merch, just a very crude page to "reserve" copies of a few vinyls and send money.
All of these pages have links to the main pages of other distros, some of them also shady.

This is more than likely the case, now that I think of it. I've had this happen to me on one occasion so far (although not to such a severe extent as in this one). It occurs when you multi-click the "Submit" button while adding albums, bands, etc (as far as I know).

Whatever the case, it shouldn't even be listed once, since it's referring to the Miserere Luminis full-length (which could have been easily been reported with the "button" rather than brought up in this thread

http://www.metal-archives.com/release.php?id=126769 ( he added "12" date to there release)

This user TheMikeyX
http://www.metal-archives.com/userprofi ... =TheMikeyX

Still adds tracks length one by one, and moreover they are incomplete, just picked up from myspace audio online stream, he did that for 2 releases in a row adding 2 songs out of 8, and the next one were 3 out of 5 just picked up randomly from newest updated.
http://www.metal-archives.com/release.php?id=272093
http://www.metal-archives.com/release.php?id=272115

Note that he has been already warned before by the admins.

I was tracking this user the whole day Tomek8754
http://www.metal-archives.com/userprofi ... =Tomek8754
Im pretty sure he adds tracks lengths one by one and also all from myspace, he go all through newest added bands and adds the lengths of the songs streamed in myspace, most incomplete.

And also to inform that i found someone has added false track lengths for Grönholm, which he added the length of the samples and they werent over 00:48 to 00:50 and it was looking so stupid. Im not so sure who was, Grondzero was the last updater and ofc he wouldnt do that! So probably is ThemikeyX cause he was by that time touring on alot of bands and doing the same job.

Check post 17 and further.

Admins: Sorry for bringing this up, but everytime I check this forum Najakelia is complaining about somebody who does the very same as him and this falsehood starts to piss me off. In case you can, check what he has been doing. Back then he had around 1700 points and that night he was definitely pointwhoring at worst and he definitely lied in his justifications.

To Najakelia: Spare me any words. You know I'm right.

Also: Keep an eye on this user:

http://www.metal-archives.com/userprofi ... n_Nameless

I guess it's the guy from this band:

http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=87192

I kept watching this for a while now and every time someone tries to update this band page, the user above changes it again to how it was. The page was updated two times today. I'm sure it'll be "re-"updated tomorrow by the above mentioned, with all its grammar mistakes and whatever.

Somebody added "they suck" to the additional notes, and added the fake release "Hungary". Also fake lyrical themes: hungarian xenophobia and stupidity
