According to the forum rules:
c. Imitating another user.
The imitation of other users by creating a user account that is intended to deceive the community into believing you are another member of the community is not permitted.

Consequence:
The offending account will be banned and the offending users other account/s will be given one warning point.


Yes, I know this is ingame and not the forums - but the spirit of the rules should surely be the same. This is someone deliberately impersonating another well-known user.

Hold on C2, wasnt named C2 at that time so he wasnt impersonating another user was he...

Perfectly legit I would say...

But if C2 was named C2 at the time then this couldn't have happened #-o

It is not a common name to choose - it was chosen purely to impersonate a well-known and respected figure of the community.

I agree it is legit by the rules of the game - but by the spirit of it? Of course not. And especially not if the person who created that account is a well-known member of the community whose "brother" suddenly created an account....

Caesar isn't an uncommon name :roll:

18743 and 1974419 for example. For 1974419, Caesar was already taken so he added an underscore. Impersonating? No, adapting.

my own name was taken by someone, who is now very much inactive
however, C2 is active, and its a pretty big coincidence for a player to just 'happen' to rename to C2

Caesar? No. Caesar2? Yes.

In that case, yes. In this case, no. He is not adapting it, but has taken the name of a known player in the game. Now if he is innocently playing the game, I'm sure he won't mind changing it once he realises.

However, and this is the point I believe C2 is trying to make - if it is a well-known player who has created a side account under the lame excuse of "brother" just to annoy C2, then they should be punished....

My curent name is "DDE~Hunter" I think. Than the red title says "Caesar2"
Am sure I annoyed many with the new name.
Am sure there is not a NEW player who ACCIDNTLY picked name C2

Creating multi accounts is against rules.
If account with C2 name is a multi, sharing IP with someone, than theres no question. Player should be banned for this.

IF he is a new player, and no IP sharing, and he will be active... I will simply pick another name. I wont cry cuse some game name :) but it will be verry similar to C2

This topic is not about how C2 is crying about his name, I want to report this account cuse its clearly a multi account!

I would advise against linking the forum rules to the game rules or vice versa.

For example multiing is not only allowed on forums but encouraged in certain sections as well. Surely you do not think that the "spirit" should be the same ingame :)
