February 18, 200620 yr A simple solution to this 0O banning/confusion/scammers problem... Jagex is banning players every day for having lots of 0's and O's in their name. Which makes sense. Scammers are making accounts like, "OOO0 O0O 0 O OO " so it's hard for you to report them, because as you don't know whether it's a zero or the letter "o", so they get away with it. Although it is extremely unfair for the innocent players who get banned. Why don't they just make the 0's have a diagonal line through them? ( )
February 18, 200620 yr I also support this idea. come on jagex its simple! send this in or something.
February 18, 200620 yr it is not unfair to any innocent players, because people with a name like that arent innocent. they've broken a rule in the T&A as soon as they started the account: you may not choose a username which is..................or deliberatly confusing i support though, when this is done people will have no reason to use names like that anymore, so Jagex can ban the remaining people who still have one, and then runescape will be an 0o0o0o0o-free place.
February 18, 200620 yr Author so Jagex can ban the remaining people who still have one, and then runescape will be an 0o0o0o0o-free place. They don't need to ban them. :? If the 0's look how I said up there, then their names would be replaced with the new 0's and everyone would know what it is if they try to scam.. :?

February 19, 200620 yr AWesome Idea. I remember when this happened to me. IT stinks! This is a great idea. If at first you don't succeed, don't try skydiving.If you try to fail, and then succeed, what have you done?If someone who draws is an artist, and someone who plays piano is a pianist, what do you call someone who races?
February 19, 200620 yr They deliberatly chose the name to be confusing and therefore deserve the ban. Its like a player deliberatly abusing a bug, both break the rules, should the person be allowed to get way with deliberatly abusing the bug because jagex inadvertantly added it to the game? I mean if jagex fix it theres no problem right? Wrong. The person is still a rule breaker, and the people that created the O0 names are still in breach of terms and conditions.
February 19, 200620 yr Great idea (Y) 23 whip pks,3 dhorka,2 ahrims lvl 119 attack 99 strength 99 and defence 92 plus 94 mage
February 19, 200620 yr Great idea (Y) Not im my opinion, it should just be disabled to make that kind of name .
February 20, 200620 yr I support, Much better idea than Jagex just banning all the 0's and o's. Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference.
February 20, 200620 yr nice idee but itrs still hard to report... even if you know wich is a 0 or a o ^^ click my sig for my lesser ranging guide ^^jwrm22: 4816th > 99 cooking 100% f2p !1172 total! + 140mil in items.i dont play anymore... i think rs is ruined
February 22, 200620 yr I like the idea. Also some people have more than one space between their username so that we do not know how big the gap is to report them. Retired 8th October 2007 | 99 Fishing | 99 Cooking | Owner of a Red Mask and 2 Santa Hats |

The problem with that rule is that the large majority of those accounts were created before JAGeX introduced it. So to ban them would be unfair as when they made the account it was perfectly legal.
February 23, 200620 yr A simpler solution would be to not allow names like 000 oo o00o to be created in the first place. There should be a censor when you're creating names to not just cover names already created, but names that are either offensive/confusing. I don't really think having a line through a zero would help all that much. Unless the person happens to have a pencil and pen near them when they get scammed and can quickly jot down the name, it's still just as confusing as if there wasn't a line through the zero.
February 24, 200620 yr It is a nice little idea. I support it. fan of her's.You know what I hate? People putting an apostrophe on a personal pronoun. STOP IT.
February 26, 200620 yr jagex is being a mega noob wen it comes to this.... there is alot of ppl out there that make there accs 00 for staking purposes... i myself have one. if jagex have a problem with 00 names why allow it to begin with. they like to see ppl put millions into accs so they can ban them and laugh? mod mike r i think thats his name told me that they will be comming out with a name changer similar to make over mage but he is unsure of when it will be comming out.. great idea about putting the line through 0s...
March 1, 200620 yr Good idea with the slashes, but then agian, why would you even want a guy with 0's in his name? I mean come on, the name looks like someone with a kindergarden education would make.... Well, my mistake, thats wrong to kindergardeners. Nothing personal, but if alls you can come up with is 0's, your account deserves to be banned. Current none PVP item drops: Dragon legs, Dragon medium- 2, Dharok axe, Ahrims hood, Kharils skirt.

March 8, 200620 yr Author TAKE THAT WORLD! My suggestion was used! I solved soo many problems. Wondering though.. who submitted to Jagex? I never did. So I don't get official credit. :(
March 8, 200620 yr Actualy they just updated the o and the / in the 0 so its all over nice idea btw i never realy thought about something like that
