Title: Same username
Post by: Infinity on Monday, August 17, 2015, 16:25:05 PM: Is this allowed?

Copying almost identical username and can easily impersonate me with negative remarks towards other players?

Thank you,
the real infinity !

I would agree with that if we were talking about just usernames, but if he's stealing a clan tag for a clan that he's not in then I believe we should ban him until the name is changed.

I've seen one of your names being in use in short time too, maybe its the same. It's a bit weird (pun intended)

On the other hand I do care about what this guy can do in my name. Other players and admins wouldn't know that he isn't me and if he starts being abusive or childish in any form or matter it can badly reflect myself, being bans or reputation.

I would be very obliged if a certain measure could be taken so that he changes his name in order to reduce the possibility of what I mentioned above.

We will always have fanboys - whether we like it or not :P however this is very childish.

Thanks again
