Re: Impersonating other GM's
An easy way to prove it is to ask them a few questions about how the server works, if they can't even answer that they are more then likely a fake person and you can ban them away. If they do answer they might be the real person might not... If they are being hostile ban them if not leave them alone

Still doesn't mean they actually know it, you could ask specifics like "what service would you use to send a message broadcast?" They should know what that is as there are quite a few things that do so. So if they answer something like "the broadcast one" they are obviously not the real one.
Re: Impersonating other GM's
I've seen usernames like [B]ash or variations on more than one PServer forum, usually with no posts though, so I just dismissed them as trolls.
Really is kinda sad people impersonating GMs and such, what the hell do they hope to achieve?

Completely off topic but your rank so made me think of this

Congrats on getting that rank though
Eitherway OT: I believe people do that for two reasons. 1: To make them seem powerful to other people. 2: To slander the real person.

Re: Impersonating other GM's
A lot of the impersonators intention is to try stir some crap up between developers and hosts so there would be a "war" for their amusement, same shit happened when BD was DDOSing my server, people stirring the crap up with BD Admin to the point he/she got sick of it and retaliated.
Re: Impersonating other GM's
Actually Bash I had a report from one of my GM's finding a "Bash" on my server :( sadly they didnt catch your image so well, his character looked pretty fukd up lolz but was rather amusing seeing someone trying to impersonate you.
But I agree rather sad kids have nothing better to do then sit and impersonate others, could be out of jealously or maybe secret fanboys/girls <__<; damn scary what people do these days.
As from an old quote of sumone that i dont remember
"Now a days even little girls are FBI agents."

I had the Admin of BD trying to stir up shit on my server, because I guess players out of my control were advertising on their forums.
And I tried to explained to their admin that my staff do not order players to do such things, nor will we ever stoop to such a low level of doing so.
And I even asked why did they just not ban and delete the stuff instead of threatening a DDOS attack if I didnt post up warnings for players to read. -.- Cant control what people outside of staff do outside of the game network...
