The "I have an impostor" thread

by Nathan · in ThinkTanks · 10/15/2003 (4:20 pm) · 18 replies

I've decided to make this thread to organize all the impostor junk.

If you have an impostor, post, and also who u think it may be.
We may be able to see that if this is just 1, or maybe more ppl.

I, myself have an impostor, and he also is a fake of FP. When I ask who it is, he says the "impostor" (go figure.)

Let's try and keep this clean, although there is some sick, twisted, person out there.

Cadc (sa) here: I have 2 impostors

I already identified one: T(sa)

Yes Nathan, I did c u'r Impostor, so I know. trust me it's frustrating.

some people don't mind, but I do, because I have a reputation of being an awsome TT player, and this may degrade u'r standards by the way u'r impostor gets anihilated by evryone else thinking it's really u. Believe me it's not fun:(

This is a good "awareness" thread. Good to have piece of mind knowing that if someone sees you acting like a moron, and they read this thread, they won't think you are high or somthing.

You know, the really ironic thing is that I don't remember Ben's impersonator incident (above). When Ben was being imperstonated, so was I.

I'm afraid that threads like these will only increase the probability that the impostors will continue. Either way, there's no way to stop them. The regular players you can always tell by their playing style or their chatter.

I want to thank everyone here on the boards for taking the initiative to clean up after yourselves and attempt to add some organization to the madness. The effort is much appreciated.

I have heard a rumor that someone has been using my screen name and being disrespectful to other players. Any who have played in games with me know that I endeavor to be respectful to other players, (absent the occasional "Stupid Demo" comment) and to exhibit good sportsmaship at all times. (excluding hunting down and destroying unrepentent spammers - ah hates unrepetent spammers)

If someone using my screen name has been disrespectful to you please accept my apology on their behalf and be assured that it was not me. If I have been disrespectful to you inadvertently feel free to inform me at the time.

Have had the pain of an Osama and slugthog impersonators, they are still present from t-2-t. However when cornered /chased they usually have relented/left.I spotted them using the standard banter/mannerisms of the real players, also they were usually quite bad skill-wise.

However a new imitation of Ben would be a welcome change... lol

There r virus' with minds of their own on TT. their names end in .1 or .2 etc. i KNOW they're not real players because one said "Night Crawler(sa.1" and night crawler has the maximum letters u acn have in ur name. not only that the game wont let u put a . in ur name. i think ive pretty much proved my theorie.

No, it's some coding glitch. They had .1 or .2 after there names because that's what the server does when two people that have the same name. There is someone controlling them (Red bandit?)
