    Is it wrong to pose as another player?

    My name is Raam, I am a 2x gladiator experienced player with casual 2300+ RBG exp as well. Recently I have decided to pose as Massives for fun, but considering my decent level of skill, people actually believe I am the real Massives. Going along with this flow, I have drawn the ire of Massives friends, but I continue to pose as him and convince people with my skill.

    It's all fun and games, but do you guys think this is wrong?

    Claiming someone else's fame is stupid. Naming yourself Athene, Kungen, or various other famous players from other games is just idiotic. Make a name for yourself, don't take someone else's. It's pathetic. >.>

    You don't understand. The name Massives and title Gladiator bring whispers up 24/7. The attention is so fun.

    It's very lame, and impersonation could be illegal under certain circumstances. (Not in this case)

    I've seen some of your posts before and can say with certainty that nobody believes you're a good player.

    This is totally wrong to do and you should be taken out, flogged in public, then banned from the game.

    I'm going to close this here.

    This is not a constructive discussion, but merely a way to glorify and justify yourself and whatever you're doing, provided you're even doing what you say you're doing.
