They do not judge accounts on their own merits, that is not part of their risk strategy. If it was then many members of this forum would not be here in the first place. They would still be happily using their original accounts.
It is well documented on these pages as to how family,friends and colleagues have lost innocent accounts purely by association to an e/b "rule" breaker.
They may not lose them immediately but when the bots catch up with them they will. I may take weeks or even months but e/b has all the time in the world. e/b may be run by humans but it is controlled by algorithms that are designed to seek and destroy any and every potential risk to their precious business.
Anything that links an offender's account to another makes it fair game for e/b and p/p to close them down. It's even been known for everyone in a college hall of residence to be booted because of one offending account.
You can complain about the injustices of e/b and p/p's actions in terminating accounts until your blue in the face but they have never listened and never will. It's their ball game and their rules and if they allow you to play make the best of it while you can or better still, stack the odds in your favour and go stealth.
Stealth is the only safe way to distance yourself from those around you. If your account goes down no one else gets hurt and if your operating stealth as it should be you will always have another account waiting in the wings to fill the breach.
How do I know this?
It's how I ended up here, I lost an 8 year old TRS business account with over 8k feedback by being associated to someones banned account.
Did e/b care about my appeals?
NO
