If a MacRumors member is being impersonated on a different forum, can their posts over there be held accountable on MacRumors?

Um. I’m not sure what that means. You can pm me details to explain further

Oh, I wanted to bring it up after @Apple_Robert was impersonated on TalkedAbout.

still not sure what you are asking, but in general, we don't police stuff that happens outside of these forums.

My point was that if a MacRumors member here impersonates another MacRumors member on a different forum, could that be against the rules?

I don't really know what to do with that. On the surface, probably not, but I'm sure there are some circumstances that we would take action if someone did something extreme off-site.

Are you able to provide some examples?
