No problem at all... :D

I guess it is impossible to define a classification that fits all possibilities. Without wanting to start the discussion anew: I am not of your opinion that a hit between friends in a few days MUST automatically be uninteresting...

Sorry but before I was in a hurry to answer you. Now we identify hit moderated with fake hit or friendly because we exchange directly notes with a friend. This is why you don't want to moderate your hit and I agree with you. I took your example because the notes started from Italy but there are users with hundred of hits with the same users or users with hits made with the same users but in different countries: these for me are not interesting. This is only my opinion but , for example, make an hit in Afghanistan with an user that you have already done hits in your country is minum not interesting...

In Italian forum not all have the same my thought.. :wink: :wink: but we have also users that ask to moderate all hits similar to your because they frequent the same pub.

Hm, as EBT asks for the location where the bill is received, not where it is during the entry (like Where's George does) this phenomenon seems inevitable to me.
If I bring a note home from an exotic location, the chances are big, that one of my frequent hitpartners will find it simply because the bill will continue it's journey in our aerea (like happened here http://de.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=12023861).
There's nothing wrong with it, although I try to take only as much notes as necessary over longer distances but that's just personal philosophy.

Sorry but your example is completely different: your hitpartner found the note after 512 days not 6 like brunswiek and his friend.

I don't agree with the fact that a hit between people who frequent the same pub is surely, not an interesting one. If these people in this particular pub in different days, then, I think it's still an interesting hit as the chances of getting the same note that your friend gave the pub owner is still little.

With your same argument, no tracker must go and buy from a shop whose owner is an EBT too.

This is quite suspicious, I think.

Amerie enters a note today and it happens to be a hit

Nothing suspicious (yet). It's very well possible that this person is just very lucky.

We will assume that then, for the time being..

Some day ago this user Euro:Our Money entered some notes in special places which seems to me very very suspicious:
