How can GC Duplicate Screen Names
GC allowed a troll (Allona, JollyGreenGiant, Sedrick) register under the same screen name tonight. Jon, How is this possible?

Often when particularly insane trolls returned, they made slight changes to the user name that you didn't notice unless you looked for them. |
Do you mean BenzGUY?
|
BenzGuy and the Benzgirl that registered within the last hour. Duplicated my sig on both
|
WTH?

Is the Benzgirl the Sequel using an I instead of an L for the username? AFAIK, duplicate usernames aren't allowed.
John's been around lately. I say just ignore the trolls and notify John/Super Mods ASAP. I'd encourage the rest of GC to do the same. |
Damn, he talks to himself.
|
Capital i instead of L. Someone did that with my AOL SN years ago. It freaked me out, and they got banned.

So that is how the troll duplicated my name and his former screen name (Allona). Smart girl! I have sent NUMEROUS messages to John, but he hasn't answered. |
The names are subtly different through the use of fonts and characters to represent letters. Very clever but now banned.
|
I got a few of them myself. Did we miss any?

Hey Super Mods,
Why was it that the cloned usernames never appeared in the Members List? |

For example, my display name on Myspace begins with a heart. To get that object to show up, I have to type "♥" (obviously without the quotations)...was that how he was able to clone her name? Thanks for getting rid of them! |
One of the PB trolls was chaging his post count around. It would go from 5 to 65 in one post.

You do not find it is funny? Stuff happens doesn't it. No, it is not me by any stretch of the imagination!:) OOPs!;) |
Trust me, the sock puppet knew Computers. He knew how to change the font to WYSIWYG in order bypass the security of a duplicate screen name, but was able to display it so that it looked like a duplicate name.
Trust me, I would never think you could pull that off. |
