Title: Aliasing
Post by: Maciej on November 03, 2012, 07:58 PM
Hay, as you probably know I'm deadly inactive since few weeks because of my monitor problems. But what I noticed... my underlined nickname on TUS. I used wormNET snooper and there was some 'Maciej' on AG! Firstly I thought it may be some polish newcomer because Maciej is just popular name in Poland, but this guy had german flag. I guess it was poor try to alias me, as he disappeared after I wrote to him...
IMO it would be good to make 'private' nicknames for better-known players in worms world, it would solve aliasing problem. Even easier that we are small community. But it's only a dream, this game is too old for this.

It would also solve this problem if people would read this thread (https://www.tus-wa.com/forums/announcements/aliasing-7371/) and do what it says in the first post.
I'm starting to think we should hand out penalties to people who can't be arsed to check ???

Don't panic Maciej, I've met lots of others maciejs in UK. Do you know something called immigration?

I know what immigration is, but as a Pole I can't imagine browsing internet under any other flag, especially german one.
Well Darkone, there are many topics in tus I don't even know about existancing, but I just forgot about this one, which I've seen time, time ago.
Anyway I don't think it's something really bad, there are much more silly topic in tus xd

That shouldn't matter, though.
If you get an e-mail from someone saying he's the prince of Nigeria and you're thinking about taking him up on his offer to give you a big sack of money, you first check whether he really is the prince of Nigeria, don't you?

maybe he does not know you change your flag in regional settings of your computer?


btw: i also have an alias, so ppl beware!!.... but this one is a more sneaky alias, he is a smarter alias!!! he even is using the american flag!!!   hes a very good rope racer, he is pretending to be in a different clan then dt, and even play clanner games and rope race challenges!!!   he is telling everyone his name is jeff!! its insanity!! my name is jeff!!  if anyone see's this alias, tell him he is not jeff!! and direct him to this no alias thread!! you may see him in AG under such names as sock, dirtysock, sockito, or oldsock!! BS!!!!!
