OMG NEXON CHEATED ON THEIR OWN GAME?

 Spoiler

but it doesn't say that GMs can't win the event

Horusmaster Wrote:checked all none on rank,

and i've tried to create characters with similiar names to a GM before and none of them works.

E.G NXJOEW, NXPROSE, GM______ and none of them works, it says you can't use that name.

IsaacGS Wrote:You're not allowed to have "GM" or a server name in your IGN, so that's why. Yellond is obviously just short of the real name.

Horusmaster Wrote:i don't think it's an imposter for 2 reasons:

1st, i've seen a GM with that name in a SS somewhere (too lazy to find it now, but i could have sworn that a GM has this name)

2nd a GM who sees the imposter did not ban or name change that character, and instead give them a reward? i don't think so...

IsaacGS Wrote:You do realize that like 80% of the IGNs up there break the rules, right? You're not supposed to have numbers in place of letters, that's considered impersonating. I/L similarity also falls under that. "Kh4inimagic" has an alteration of a server name in it as well, that's against the rules too.


Just saying, that's a particularly easy GM name to fake (Yeiiond,yeiLond, yeLiond) and they left a lot of other violators there.
