Many people are using Capital i's and using them as l's and pretending to be people. I think if someone does this it should be a ban. Post your thoughts and...

ikr! one time,that happened to a penguin named applebottom.it was basically both impersonation of her and impersonation of a hacker. here's what i mean: applebottom was minding her own buissness and a penguin named "evilbrother" came up to her and said "i'm gonna hack you". so,evilbrother made an account close to her's except be secretely replaced the l with a capital i. (don't ask me how i know so much about this.) and everyone thought he was really a hacker. including applebottom. so yeah,he was basically impersonating applebottom AND impersonating a hacker. my suggestion is,from now on if someone tries to create a name simular to another person's name it won't let them. for instance,say a penguin has the name "fruitnInja". (capital i) and another person tries to create an account named "fruitnlja". (lowercase L) it won't let them. that is my sugggestion for a solution. have a great day and i'll see you on oldcp! until then..waddle on!

I don't know...I think adding onto what coolman said, If it is a threat to hack then it should be a ban. But, What if that user never plays? For example, i was creating an account called Elvis, and the name was taken. So i used a capital i as the L, and yet, i never see that penguin. Does it count if he/she never plays oldcp? Should it count?

I agree, impersonators should be banned.
