I have a scenario for you guys.
Say you hate someone a lot in game. And say they have a kong account, or an account that is separate from the SK forums. Or they just don't know about the SK forums.
What would stop you from, say, making an alt with a similar name, claiming it to be THEIR alt, and violating the tos, resulting in their ban?
For example: Say there is a player named Nick. And say he meets another player called Elitedragonlord1337. They do a clockworks run together, where Elitedragonlord1337 uses his polaris to troll enemies into Nick. After some conversation, Nick lets it slide, but learns Elitedragonlord1337 has a kong account, and subsequently is unaware of the foru
A few depths later, Elitedragonlord1337 trolls a trojan remspeately into a corner, trapping Nick. Nick ends up dying from a stray Love puppy bullet somehow. He becomes enraged, and asks for a revive. He is ou t of sparks. Elitedragonlord1337 refuses, and kicks him, proceeding to finish FSC with his CTR VH Blitz and MAX DMG trinkets for Vana in 2 minuttes.
Nick is left dead and bagged by a trojan. He decided to then make an account named Elitedragonlord1337-II on the forums, and made uncensored posts about non-kid-friendly info. He also puts his "ign" as Elitedragonlord1337, to make people believe he was the guy. What he posts is so vulgar and so disgusting that the traumatized CMs permaban Elitedragonlord1337. Elitedragonlord1337 rages in the support email, but the GMs decide he is lying and do nothing.
So Elitedragonlord1337 had spent $1337.37 (figure dat out) on the game to get his Elite tryhard gear, but ends up banned for something he did not do.
How would this situation be handled/prevented? I personally cannot see how someone could not be able to impersonate another person on tge forums. Like, I could make a new acct and call it "Insert Your IGN Here", and pretend to be you?
Any ideas?
Fortunately, we can tell when accounts are related to each other via methods other than names.
