Ghost (STEAM_0:0:91070990) is surely the same guy, as the timestamps and same IP on his many bans show:

1 week ban issued on 04/Mar/2018 by me for team killing (1stMRB server):
(I only noticed after he was banned that he was the same guy that I was already researching since the day before)

How this case came about: I received a message from our fellow player free bird, saying he was concerned about Ghost's suspicious gameplay, during his 03/Mar/2018 session (Ghost was using the nick "（神話）雌犬が所有す" at the time). I joined spectators at 08:28:17 and he left at 08:31:12. In those less than 3 minutes I couldn't definitely find out whether he was indeed cheating or not, albeit leaning towards yes, thus warranting further inquests. Afterwards I started searching and found his many bans, and his secondary accounts linked by the same IP, and finally a demo included in one of the SourceBans info pages. Thanks free bird for the tip about this guy!
