This is a quick reminder to keep your username on Invision Virus different from other usernames you use on the web. That way Invision Power Services (IPS) can not directly identify you or your community. If you happen to fall into the situation that your username is the same as it is on IPS OR if your username is the same across the web and you wish to have your username and display name history removed from public view, please follow the following steps.
1) Go to your "My Settings" > Manage "Display Name" > Change your display name
*NOTE: People can still see your previous display name history on your profile. To remove your display name history follow Step 2
2) Contact _.:Mercenary:._ via PM and request a your Display Name History to be deleted. (Due to security reasons do NOT DM me on Discord for this)
*NOTE: This will remove all of your previous display names here at IV, this is the best way to stay anonymous and under the radar.
*Security Note: As a safe reminder, please note that staff will NEVER message you privately (without your permission) for your password(s). Staff will also never message you to gain access to your ACP on your community or ask you for any other sensitive/private information. Report any suspicious activity that may be impersonation if this happens.
As always we take your privacy VERY seriously. That being said as we approach 60k members we have taken extra steps to secure our Admin Panel, servers, and other areas that have confidential information to be more secure & private for your protection.
Thank you again for being a loyal member of Invison Virus,

My pleasure!
I was reading an article from a long time ago which stated that IPS will investigate possible nulled boards by finding the head admin/owner username and searching on the web (or even on IPS) to see what comes up. So I thought to my self it would be a good idea to give people extra reminder

Big shout-out to _.:illus!on:._ for making the custom made tool!
Cheers!

But they cannot see the file uploaded as a Guest, they won't go out their way to make an account.

No one for sure knows 100% how IPS investigates nulled boards. However you can't just say "Your name here wont do any bad to you" because I know a previous staff member and members of IV have been banned from IPS because they had the same name here at IV and IPS.
At the end of the day you do not have to abide my warning, just don't come crying when/if you get busted by IPS.

They look at the checksums of files uploaded to IV and if they match a file downloaded by a user on IPS he will more than likely get banned. Talking from experience here

If you download a file from IPS. Keep it for yourself for a few days and look at how many downloads on IPS were done on that file after you that way you are lost among the numbers to them.
If you download a file and 2 minutes later you come here to upload, they're gonna know it's you.

I don't think it's a ban. Make a ticket with them.
