i played with "Vadikus" acc 7 years ago, back then tus had no feature to change your nick, so I come up with "impossible" acc and we agreed with MonkeyIsland that he blocks my old vadikus account. sir-j have similar story i think.
the other thing you're wrong about is the term "alias". alias = false name that is used to conceal one's identity, we obviously didn't conceal ourselves as you can see in the replays (we usually warned opponents, and everyone knew who hahayouredead is anyway), so the thread name with correct definition would be "sir-j and impossible new/changed nicks"
however it would be foolish to deny, I had an actual aliases that was against the tus rules. I was also banned for that, what exactly you don't like about this, did you expect 1000 years ban?
the question that would be really worth questioning: why is aliasing forbidden anyway? this is a computer game, remember? We do not use aliases to steal money or hide after committed murders. its worms armageddon, people create aliases here as an attempt to feel the joy of the game they received when they played it for the first, it's just an attempt to bring back pleasure of the old days, you know, but its nowhere close to concept of "criminality". and ill tell you why by reminding what criminality means: people wanted to live free, but if everyone is free, then everyone can kill each other, and life will be impossible. so people agreed that freedom should end where the rights of another person start. to create this restriction, people created the concept of criminality that sets the limits to the one's freedom. this is what crime is, an act that harms others.
now tell me, how can you harm people depending on whether you are aliasing or not? Its not aliasing itself that do harm, its things that people do, once they feel their inviolability under alias, that may do harm.
There is no reason to consider aliasing bad itself,
its just same people obeying same rules under different names.
All this league obeys the rules of the computer game, and the idea of games is to get fun. the essence of aliasing is the same, to get fun, so technically it follows the league concept. but to prohibit aliasing means prohibit people having fun, which is contrary to the concept of game league, so.. people who propose to prohibit aliasing is basically league terrorists. they should be immediately banned!
