[Unbanned]Impersonating? really?

[Claws]

Hello, I joined the server with the name Klaus_Meine, but there was already someone playing named [EAF]Klaus, which could cause confusion, so as requested I changed my name to Claws, you know, claws like a tiger uses to catch his prey, but after that I got subnetbanned for impersonating(?), even tho there was no other guy connected named claws. Thanks for understanding

You were banned after impersonating me several times. After countless warnings and kicks, you still didn't listen.

Enjoy your ban.

You told me to change my name, so I thought I changed it to something else like Kloos or Klaas (can't really remember what ones I used but they were different than Klaus) but also that did not furfil the adminstrator's wishes.
Several warnings and kicks, that's true and that is also why I've chosen the nick Claws since it's not similar to Klaus (a tiger does not catch his prey with his Klauses?) but also that was not tolerated.

Every name you used was an attempt to provoke myself and the administration. Every name, whether it was Kloos or Claws, were imitations of Klaus. If you simply wanted to play you would of just used your normal nickname, but that obviously wasn't part of your game plan was it.

I never intented to impersonate members of the staff team, I chose the name Klaus Meine since it is the singer of my favorite hard-rock band from Germany, the Scorpions. I think the name Claws is not similar to the name Klaus because it is spelled a whole different way.

The problem with using the name Klaus_Meine, Claws_Meine or any immediate derivative of it is that it is too similar/identical to Klaus_Meine, which has already been used and CAN be confused with Klaus or a parody of him. The issue here isn't personal but one of avoiding conflicts between members, and the same issue would more than likely arise if someone used a name similar to another player's.

To be unbanned, all you really have to do is acknowledge that, pick a different name, and be patient.

Unbanned - Why don't you just join the server under your normal name in future? Would save you a lot of unnecessary hassle.
