namestealing / namecopying

.

just wondering if its ok to copy / steal other well known players exact names ingame

examples :

i could start using names such as

¤)ßmÇ(¤ DrStrange
inVictus|nameless
Hillbillyninja
Maj.MerliN

etc. etc. etc.


i ask because some noob nobody called Zippy, ping ~ 77, has deliberately begun using my nick 000 whenever im online

and i dont mean names that are close to, but not the same, examples : 001, Hillbillinja, inVictus|nameloss
etc. – no, i refer to 1:1 namestealing

no admins do anything about it. im sure reaction would come swiftly, if i started using the above names

or maybe only clanners / admins have the exclusive rights to their names, while the rest of us have to accept namecopying /namestealing ...

Re: namestealing / namecopying

Impersonating a admin should not be allowed at all, and if you see a player using your tag then mention it in the chat logs so admins can make the difference between you and him.

I understand, but in my opinion it's a bit different because nearly every regular player knows who 000 is. It would be different if he was talking about "BFSoldier"

"Today I played against 000 and he played like a normal guy - good job there 000 - keep it up."

Arkos is so old and smart that everything looks boring and familiar to him.
He's just like a 100 years old turtle that had already seen everything in this life. smile

Re: namestealing / namecopying

Not that what i say is worth a dime but he is right. It is not cool to not use your own nickname.

I do not like mr 000 nick when he plays the game and in the end, IF he has OK score, he quickly swaps to 000 else he will rage-quit.

I do not know his deal...

But he is the ONLY 000 in bf1942 (i hope)... this ain't sarcasm. If he wants to be a triple zero he will be the triple zero. Don't impersonate him please people.

On aX we have a player like that he uses our names and team kills with it. Great move... script kiddies.
