@k00b and @ek, is there any way to get rid of that scammer @guerratotaI? @scoresby fell victim to him the other day; he created an account using my username but added a capital 'I' at the end instead of a lowercase 'L' to claim the July prize. Now, it seems that whenever someone tries to tag me, that damn guy pops up instead of me.

ah shit. this is a classic scam from old school rpg games like RuneScape. as a start and easy fix, I'd recommend using a different font for usernames. a monospace one i think is usually the best bet. and choose a font that has a slash through the 0 so it cant be swapped for o

also a heavier feature idea: you could add a friend list/trusted user list, and users who are on your personalised list can have their usernames rank higher in tag search and also show in green.

reply

We do have trust scores, so ordering those searches by it should be easy.

I honestly never thought some idiot would impersonate me, hahaha.

I was looking into that business of putting the O with the / on top, but from what I see, SN doesn't allow for that, nor for Gothic letters.

Also, I don't know what impact changing my username would have at this point, hahaha.

Your idea of adding a friends list is pretty good, I think.

hahah noo don't change your username, SN should just render the numbers and letters in a distinct format

reply

I'd love to see this.

reply

the problem with removing such an account is that we'd be committing to removing variations similar to any given user's name.

Basically I's and l's look very similar. so any name using either would mean banning names that use a look-alike letter.

I wonder if there isn't a good solution to this though.

reply

So I'll have to live with this burden for the rest of my life then...?

Could we do something like report an account or something? Something that marks it as a "scammer"?

reply

I think we can come up with a helpful solution.

reply

I'm sure it will.....!!!

reply

yeah or reverse, and you mark certain accounts as friends

No worries, I don’t expect anyone to know, I’ll just let them know when they need to

Wow 👀

@plunda I’m getting organized here to cover the cost of the ~AskSN territory I acquired this week. I want to keep it alive, and I also want to do something like @BlokchainB to breathe life into your project; personally, I really like it—I visit whenever I can, top up my funds with sats, and buy some coins.

That Bolivian coin is beautiful.
