And clockwork didn't say that he used him as a spy, just that he knows he was one. Assuming he is telling the truth that is. I could just as easily say that Deznuts or clockwork also like to sell guild info for profits and that both are spies. Need to take things with a grain of salt honestly.
If clockwork is pointing out a spy, I promise you that he's made use of them before at some point, or at the very least tried to. He isn't shy about that.
You could say Dez likes to sell guild info, but you'd probably be laughed at. No one seems to be laughing here in regards to Bababoui. It takes more than a post from a shoddy source to ruin ones reputation if they have a good one; if they don't have a good reputation, a post like that can be extremely damaging.
One can know another is a spy without having hired them before you know. For example, If I reached out to you, offering to sell you TUDOR secrets for gold, and you refused, you would then know that i was a spy. It could be possible that Babosa offered clockwork info for gold-which would show him that babosa is a spy. If clockwork then decided he didn't like babosa, and had no use for a spy, he could then rat him out without losing anything. Again though this is all speculation. He could be lying out his arse for all i know.
