When a site like RapidGator complies with the DMCA and has identified users as being pirates, there must be some kind of legal action that can be taken if they refuse to remove their upload privileges. Can we assume that a user like PIMP20 is one of their employees or part of an automated script?

I usually find that these users are super uploaders that get preferential treatment from rapidgator, it wouldn't be too far fetched that they could be part of rapidgator.
When we check removals, there are some interesting patterns. One is that rapidgator will omit to remove one in every six links (it's a really obvious pattern using a link checker) the other is that they really drag their heels removing any of the links of certain affiliates.
Naturally their bot mail we notify removal completed but I always check. Then you see the patterns because depending on affiliate, they are either all removed, 1 in 6 is not removed or they didn't actually remove any at all.
I'm sure no-one is surprised that antics like these and way worse will happen behind the closed door of a cyberlocker.
