I saw a Steven_Coward, it was not me.
And I am Steven_Howard.

i am very sorry to disappoint you, but everyone can name characters how he wants (If it doesn't break rules).

There was a LN_Spazzydragon flying around late september. Wasn't me either.


Just do what I did.

As long as nobody complains about that exact name already being used by somebody else with an established background it's fair game.

That happen to myselfe with my future BMM miner, had the exact same name like a BAF|MN Player. Tongue

Edit: Pfff these smilies don't look good, much too small.


RE: Fake copycat chars - monmarfori - 12-14-2012

Oh, and that is false multiboxing since 2 almost-identical named chars appear?

This is not flood. I believe it was meant to be a serious discussion. Please keep it that way.


RE: Fake copycat chars - Xelon - 12-14-2012

What does that have to do with multiboxing?

AFAIK Multiboxing is when you have multiple instances of Freelancer open at the same time, and are playing with both.

I know. Joe Grant. That was weird.

I've seen a couple of XXX-EagleEyes flying around in the past year(s). The question remains whether or not these people were inspired by the LD I created in June 2010 and named LNS-EagleEye. Sometimes I really do think some were.

Greetings.

If his name bugs you, have you tried contacting him ingame to sort things out?
Could just be a coincidence after all.

That would be the first step. Since his name could be intended to troll you, the next step would be to contact the admins and let them decide.

Killing or bountying him for oorp reasons, as spazzy suggested, would be wrong in my opinion.
