baalboy5 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Rule 12 stats that asking real world information, so tell me If someone had a number only name and it was their phonenumber can't they get banned? Since it's there real world information and if anyone lived around their 215 number they can get found. So can having a phone number named ACCOUNT be agianst the rules? Don't you know the first rule of MMO's? Anyone higher level than you has no life, and anyone lower than you is a noob. People in OT eat glass when they are bored.

jemathonical Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 You would have to be pretty sad to see some one's Runescape name and ring it. I see many macroers with just number names, maybe if it's the number to the big sweatshop factories they work in? ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it!

Recksash Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 wow, you'd have to be really, really,REALLY dumb to put your credit-card number as your username. There's be no real point in having your phone # as username. But I don't think its sharing real world info (even if its not too smart) because you're just putting a number. Like if your username was 123-4567, i think that would be ok. But if your rsn was: my_phone_number_is_123-4567, then that would be sharing real-world information. Politics,n.

Voldmort0 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 You would have to be pretty sad to see some one's Runescape name and ring it. Yeah, exactly. Firstly what Jema said. Secondly, it would not be against the rules - seeing as there's nothing that can prove that it is YOUR phone number. Also, you're not telling the other players directly.

kdb148 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 I do sometimes wonder if 10 digit usernames are actually phone numbers. Check out this cool browser gladiator game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freesia Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Should be fine. The population don't know your personal information and with those numbers they can't assume that it is your whatever number irl. When they say random numbers in your name, they are more likely to think "god, how did he memorise that name?" along those lines :lol: Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

mpg321 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 You shouldn't get banned for that unless you go about telling people that your username is your phone number etc. Blog to all 99's! Look here to find out how im doing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulxai Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 People with number names have a pattern usually. The leader of Elite Intervention's rsn is 85698569852. It's just 8569 | 8569 | 852. Use the number pad and you'll see a pattern. ~ Proud Father ~ Proud (Currently Deployed) Army National Guardsmen ~ Proud Lakota ~ Retired Tip.It Crew ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Dragon_Reborn Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I have an account named "2486226842" for no reason at all. A number user name is very easy to memorize if you can remember the pattern of it on the keypad. ~~Let The Dragon ride again, on the winds of time~~I've always felt as if I'm the only person who can understand the concept of sarcasm on the internet.

p0nd3r4 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 ^ Especially with numpad, you can make all sorts of shapes that way :) Anyhoot, I guess it depends on the wording of the rule's description. If it defines the offensive material as being information, you'd need to be saying, as someone already mentioned 'my phone number is xxxxxx' and would get away just fine with saying anything of your personal details, so long as you don't put it into context. If, on the other hand, it says 'data' rather than 'information' then you could be rightfully banned on merely saying the number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenw Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Remember the rule of Innocent until proven Guilty, unless you reveal that your username is your phone number or credit card number, than no1 on earth is gonna guess that is gonna be a phone number, and besides, you dont EVEN know what COUNTRY they are in, so what good to anyone is a string of seemingly random number, so no1 will notice, neither will jagex prove that it is your phone number unless you explicitly state that it is your phone number. Also, some people are much more used to remembering patterns and numbers than actual words, so having a number will actually let them memorise it better (and which could COINCIDENTALLY be a phone number, but that is rather rare) 6,924th to 30 hunting, 13,394th to 30 summoning, 52,993rd to 30 DivinationKiln Record (Post-EoC): W 25 - L 0, 14 Uncut Onyx, 8 Jad hits received (Best record: Two in the same kiln)Obby set renewed post update #2: 0QBD drops: 21 crossbow parts, 3 Visages, 1 Kites, 2 KitsMax Port Score [2205] Achieved: 27th April 2013 (World 2nd) Farmyard Rampage ranking: 12th, 50,000 Kills.
