Hi Tlers
As can be expected, some people don't like to play fair like the rest of us. I'd caution you to be careful if you receive PMs from "popular" users who have the letters i or L in them. Why? Because on TL, capital I and L look the same! We used to troll each other by making accounts like liquid`nazguI (Last letter is small L) but when Dr.HelvetLca tries to scam beta keys...we have a small issue  . Suffice to say the culprit has been IP banned, but just stay safe/classy.
More beta keys will be available tomorrow.

I'm just happy you give out beta keys yay
I have been refreshing every hour on the hour waiting for you to say the golden words haha.

What about the beta key giveaway thread? You said that you'd give more away at 9PM, but I don't know your time zone. I made something really special for that thread, and I'd like to know when it reopens because I'm trying to get done with a lot of school work, and I can't just stay on TL refreshing the SC2 section.

How do we know that YOU'RE not the imposter? Sent here to lull us into a false sense of security and then you'll lash out at the perfect moment and scam hundreds of beta keys from the faithful followers of TL.
Who can we trust?
IMO: No one.

We actually had a discussion about this a while ago in staff forum, and registered all the combinations of staff (i.e., colored name) names, which is why all things like Chiii, chiiL etc are all taken.

ya that thread was sad and full of face palm's left and right. Kids arguing about who was right, it was like a terrible group of people in a thread attempting to prove their point thinking they were good at debating and making logical cases based of what other people have stated with their jesus-knowledge.

noooouuu, this is the best font ever!
Just make the names in the pms from mods have the red/blue name, or make a script that checks for L and i (and existing users) and warns the user about the possible scam.

Why let them off easy? How about reporting him to his ISP. I remember some kid posted a trojan on a popular forum a couple years ago and the moderator contacting his ISP and emailed his mom (don't ask me how he got the email address) letting him know what scum her son was.
edit: nevermind, seemed he didn't do anything

hah, if i ever become famous (which doesnt seem likely =P), im at risk, but thankfully its only 1 letter =0
thanks for the heads up though, Kennigit.

A good way to check is to just copy and paste the "I/l" and put it into google. I put the lowercase "L" in for instance and liquipedia comes up under it. So in this case it's an L which the poster above got right :D

step one: copy the questionable name
step two: open visual basic
step three: convert the questionable name into case upper
step four: ???
step five: profit
Yea.... I went there.

I think some harsh punishment is definitely in order. How about trace the IP, google earth their house and send them a pic of it saying "we know where you live, you try that again, and we'll point our huge collossi laser beams at your house!"
