Some intelligent spammers in hotan (surely other towns) are getting their names like this : lllllllll , to confuse ppl. But, is it i or L?? I had a great idea and i can still block them now. My idea is, i pm'ed tht guy by clicking on his name, then i delete the last letter and tried to put a lil L (l). I tried to say sumthing to him and it didnt work. I tried a big i (l) and it works . Then I did the same to the others letters and now I can block all spammers!

Hope it will help some!

Btw, the one in pacific, hotan, his name is __iiLLiLLi__ ! The spammer standing between the stable and xmas tree.

seems like a bit much work to block a single spammer

What if another IIlIlIIlI or whatever guy existed and you accidentally PM'ed him? I wonder if any legit players put their name like that.

i just use a modded arial font so i can see the I and l differently

Chances are low, very low. If they are rlly intelligent, they will all go like tht llllllllllll all spammers, it could be a nightmare >.<

just so you know, there are like 4096 combinations when the name is 12 characters long consisting of i and L's

just p2k edit it to korean and the i and L look diff

nothing unless you're scared of people

See the button under "backspace"? Click shift and click that. |||||| Is that what you are seeing?
