Steven Posted 17 June 2005 Share Posted 17 June 2005 I think we should ban posters from using exact player names to allow that player the opportunity to sign on as themselves. E.g. petercanero a recent joinee. (Nothing personal ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E.g. petercanero a recent joinee. (Nothing personal ) 124287[/snapback] But if you ban people from using exact player names, how will you know it is a actual player signing on? What if the recent joinee - petercanero is actually Peter Canero? You will never really know will you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
