StrategyWiki talk:Guide/Account naming

Did you choose 6 numbers so Mason won't break the policy or is there any other reason, also what about special characters, I'd suggest normal english characters and only having special characters in the signature.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 11:20, 14 August 2007 (CDT) Also what about doppleganger accounts like Skizzerz, thse are a few points, I skimmed this page for them, if anyone can find more then that would be helpful.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 11:23, 14 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Didn't even notice that, meh. Anyway, it's just a proposed policy, so feel free to add in whatever you feel like, although this policy has more to do with naming the accounts, not creating them. If you feel that it should be expanded to account creation (with a sub-policy of account naming), you're going to have to move the page. -- 12:17, 14 August 2007 (CDT)
 * As for the six numbers, it has nothing to do with Mason (as he has letters as well). I was subtlety referring to that spambot flood we had a while back when a lot of accounts like 1146161713 were created (go into Special:Listusers to see what I mean). It had to be above four to prevent 0-172 from breaking the policy (he might have to block himself then :P). As for doppelgangers, it was to prevent any confusion in case someone else decided that they liked "Skizzerz" without knowing that I've already psuedo-taken it in my sig (it's blocked, so hacking it would be pointless as well). -- 12:20, 14 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Admins can unblock themselves though.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 13:51, 14 August 2007 (CDT)
 * I know, I'm the one that blocked it to begin with, just to discourage potential hackers (as that account has a much less secure password than this one). -- 20:14, 14 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Yeah, what about accounts made to impersonate others, intentionally, or by accident? --Tathar [[Image:Tathar.jpg|32px]] (talk|contribs) 01:38, 15 August 2007 (CDT)
