Impersonate in text chat

Hi.
People find the way to impersonate to someone else in text chat like here (video contain swearword):


Guy introduce himself as ADMIN by using some of space buttons or something like that, i don’t know how it works.
The problem is that he can impersonate as another player in game and cause undeserved report or not receiving endorsement.
There is a simple way to fix it by change nick’s font to bold, italics or another.
What you think about it?

Lol, that reminds me of a classic WoW troll, in a battleground sometimes people say “multiple people have reported you for being AFK, do /AFK to avoid being removed from the match”. But doing /AFK removes you from the battleground anyway but people still get fooled by it to this day.

But yeah that’s going to be a new annoying troll.

That’s a cheeky move, hopefully it’ll get fixed asap to prevent a few gullible people from getting leaver penalties.

Guy just has some fun. He also educates people about alt+f4. Do you seriously want him to be banned?

Theyre exactly comparable. The guy in the video threw the dynamite by posting that garbage. he hit someone when they took the bait.

A guy getting hit by dymamite in a videogame isint going to get killed in real life…

There are always new victims as elderly people die and newcomers get enough old to play. It’s the circle of Life…:notes:
