Well I think it's rather ANNOYING, seeing myself trying to download all me releases. FYI, I never use my name popdrome/ALIPTES although I tried once, and stumbled onto the parasite.FLL wrote:"Me [FLM]". I seems more likely to me that they are hoping people here add them as friends and give them a boost that way. It could be more sinister if they try to message anyone here in eMule using the cloned nick, but that doesn't seem to be happening.

Re: impersonator on emule
the solution that we at the norwegian forum has adapted is using the special nordic letters (æøå) in our nicks... So far i haven't seen myself downloading from me, and i only give out FS to people from the norwegian board or from FLM that i'm chatting in emule with..
Re: impersonator on emule
So use ASCII.
I use ASCII on WinMX.
The chap using my nick has gone, but if it should happen again ill do that.

Re: impersonator on emule
In my mod i give a 15x boost to friends. Everytime i see someone with the tag [FLM] in the nick, i add him to my friendslist.The only possible benefit I can think of is with the community shraring feature in clients like eMule Plus which give a 1.5x boost to the score of users who have the desired tag in their nick. Eg. I have set [FLM] as my community tag. If you have [FLM] as the first tag in your nick, I'll give you a 1.5x boost.
Re: impersonator on emule
Is it important to chosse a name for yourself (e.g as abvoe having flm in your name will mean people at least know of you)
I have just left mine as the default, didn't think it was important.

Re: impersonator on emule
No, in general it is not important. But if you don't edit your nick, people can't recognize you and give you a friend upload slot etc.household wrote:Is it important to chosse a name for yourself (e.g as abvoe having flm in your name will mean people at least know of you)

So you have excluded a whole class B network ?? I can't understand why you would do that.
