Why do people Copy IGN's / Guild's ?

Right sine I started playing in January '06 I met alot of let's say ... 'legends' on Troy and Xian. I've also ben in quite a few 'legendary' guilds thru out my time.

I deeply respect these players and guild for what they have done for the game .. and it totally pisses me off when I see some retard who thinks it's cool to copy it.

For example on Olympus we have .. Darkjackle [ <3 ] - ASmile4U [ Warred you in a war vs pimp ] - Hexena - iSeraphimi - KinkySlayer - rustyspork and good old PooprScoopr.

Now some might say goodluck to them .. but sad thing is most if not all claim to be the original, and to be quite frank that pisses me off.

Few hours ago I see this for the first time made me lol saying this BlackHand was made before the other ...... - -!!

I mean c'mon .. Am I the only one that thinks this is stupid? IMO they should make it so that once a name is taken it can only be made by that person's account on a different server or something ....

Well, it's not a big deal if they are in different server. Some names are just chosen by coincidence, like when i create a char, a lot of name had been chosen....

No I'm fine with names being taken lol. I could of added 200 more names if it was that. I just hate it when some1 takes a name and acts like the original.

rustyspork is pretty legendary, not as much as the others. And PooprScoopr botted.


I don't like it when people copy other's names though, that's not cool.

there are officially-sanctioned BlackHand guilds on abot 4 servers that i know of, and rogue ones with no affiliation to the original BHA on another 3 more. generally, someone comes to me on here and asks permission to branch out the BH name and ideals to other servers. if, after talking to them, i can trust them to do so, they get our blessing.

we have been wrong about people before. the BlackHand chapter on Athens now bots, from what i hear. hurts.

It's a name, it is difficult to define originality or uniqueness.
There are infinite people playing the game.
It is not a surprise if a few people have the same name in mind.

OK! not trying to be an ass or anything but its kinda funny that your own guildname is "stolen" from the biggest bot-guild on xian :roll: The guild doesnt exist anymore as far as I know but back then it was probably the best guild on xian judging by their lvl.

But maybe you guys have had that guildname for ages, I dont know, but if so, Im sorry. :)

3 good reasons
1) Didn't know it existed before, just thought it would be cool
2) Got owned by them on the old servers and as the adage goes if you cant beat them... copy them on another server
3) Thought the guild was cool but didnt get invited, went to another server and started w/ same name

Not stolen m8. Trixy came to Olymp for like 2 weeks... Made Xom .. quit and gave to me.

And peopel are missing the point .... I don't honestly care for people taking other peoples names.. It can happen theres like 75k people .. can't all have a diff name.

The reason I made this thread was cause theres peopel out there that claim to be the ORIGINAL. Like in my first post that guy .. claims Xian made it after him ... kinda funny seeing as Olymp came out in like august of 06 and BH on Xian been out way before then. And the ASmile4U claims hes the real one from troy... utter bullshit.

Ahh .. to me no1 can become a legend now .. too many people for that. Back at 70/60 cap I'd personally say .. well the people I said in my first post. Well known guys, which had their 15 mins of fame basically. < Off topic but yeh.

They are legendary Troy players because they started when server opened never botted and been part of the great ANBU union, that was old lvl 60 cap good times...

They are legends because they have marked us the good way.

I'll always respect ASmile4U cuz even if i was low lvl he talked to me and i learnt stuffs while he was lvl 70 .
Hexena keeps on killing bots, and has a family guy avatar, so he's leet

Indeed, we will never see Duck_Head again :) ...but we will see his other botted char Forever_Evil :(.

Probably wont see XNL again, or phunky or Fly for that matter.

I heard there was a another Shinsengumi guild in Redsea and a other server :( No clue who runs it. As long as the same guildname ain't in the same server i ain't got no problem with it :D
