1. Someone has a similar name to you and needs to be banned.
2. This is the weirdist glitch I have ever heard of.
3. You have went crazy and have a double personality.
:D :D :D :p

those are pple who hack into your user acount info and use ur name. then they tell lies about you. it happen to me a few times and i took screenshots but i lost them. you gotta be careful and the next time take screenshots by pressing alt+printscreen.

um he/she problably copied your name with a upper case i so in reality he/she would be (msk)Biossom and uh i dont think theres any rule against that..but there are measures against ppl who constantly use profanities in the servers.
Solid if you choose to have a lower case L or an uppercase i you will be open to that kind of cloning both the names on your current screen shot are open for that sort of thing. luckily for me I already protected both names. :D

[color=blue:post_uid4]I experienced this as well a few time's snake.
In fact a lot of people did!!!
Blasted hacker's do that just to be a pain in the.
As well to try and make nice people look bad sheez.
Anyway best thing to do is just.
Take a screen shot and report them like snake is doing :biggrin:[/color:post_uid4]

Solidsnake76 i can explain how he did it.
1. There's lots of sites where you can go onto XvsSF
2. He opened up tweo windows
3. He went to two different sites
4. For both of the sites he logged in as his name
5. He went on the same server (1st server)
6. When he gets kicked with one name his other name is still in the server
There i explained it now that will be $5000 US. How will you be paying in cash or cheque? We also accept Visa and mastercard.
:laughlong:

Ummm...no. If that is it, then it would be that jackson guy and blossim doing the exact same thing...look at it, the guy says the same thing, "I'm gaaaaaaay", it's not the same person with 2 diffrent people having it happen.

um ok...
in the game I and L can bu used to look as the same letter
DARKV-I-RUS----ver2. DARKVlRUS
So-L-idsnake
B-L-ossom
if you create a name like mine for example(ver.2) with a lower case "L" instead of an uppercase "I" it will look exactly the same in the servers.
yours would be created with a upper case "I" so in reality it would be soIid snake but it looks exactly the same in the game.

Why did virus even have to explain that? It wasn't very hard to understand...and not as complicated as one you explained it as.
I don't have a problem that has the same name as you...I feel honored :D
I've had just one imposter, and it turned out be luna. This was the same day in which weezer was "dxzero(moderator)" and luna was the "sex (moderator)" :laugh:

uh its very simple iTALY if you choose to make a name with those letters make sure you protect and create the other version of that name.
Do you honestly think i would have passed up on the name VIRUS jus because someone could clone it....hehehe. I made sure i made the other versions and that i am the only one who can log in as that name or its clones. This actually has a perk to it if you choose a name with these letters and your not to happy with your record you can always have a backup.
And dan you were not the intended audience for that post if you already understood then just skip over it and move on. Solid was the one who asked for an explination.

which is y u dont put l's in ur names, i even kno that jeeez
I guess i dont strike you as the type to know that already about your name...but i was stating the pros of HAVING L or uppercase I in your name and how you really should'nt sweat it if you protect the other name(s).
I was more or less responding to what I quoted from you.

the vets explained this one pretty well... but DAMN !!
whats wrong with you people ?? NO ONE is hacking the site (we have 128 encryption in the game to prevent these that sorta' thing !!!)
2nd... opening two windows.. three... four... a million doesn't matter... they ALL authenticate throught the SAME server...
3rd... with over 215,000 members, i JUST can't "protect" everyone... the font sux.. i know... and guess what... all fonts have the similar problem...
capital "i" will always look like a lower-case "L" inside the game... u just have to live with it...
(i don't see anyone sending emails to ID because they found someone using the same nick as them on that particular Quake server)....
