This is how your name looks in games:
Attachment 21419
This is NOT acceptable and constitutes Name Abuse given it is not readable to the other players and appears to be a blank slot / dead player.
Not to be rude, but you already knew you shouldn't be the one to answer this question. and now im sure the rest is just gonna go with your reply instead of giving their own answerQuote:

To be fair, without being able to see what those color codes produce on the screen, there's not much point to asking the question -- no one who isn't familiar with HTML is going to be able to associate 000000 and EE0000 with black. It's a question of optics and attempting to deceive other players into believing that you are dead or not in the game.Quote:

If your gonna be in SuperJ then never use this name cause it's.rule.breaking and again the sport of the game. Make sure people can see.your.name. it's only fair.Quote:

what about my rep? 4 years of service and one of the best players having bananachucho on my back.
Yah but still clan is supposed to have a good name yah.Quote:

=)
You understand though right? .^^ no more camouflage/blank names yas?
^^you one tonight yah?
being ignored is the best feeling.
I remember people doing that =D. Wow, that's banned nowadays?
Doesn't the game show a box next to every votable/visitable player, making it immediately obvious when someone is pulling that trick? There are other things that made it really hard to pull off like the vote count. I haven't played in a long time though.
Honestly, if there was some massive epidemic of players doing it and floods of reports to mods about it, it makes sense to ban it. And it doesn't really live up to the tasteful, well-mannered sportsmanship the sc2mafia community has worked hard to cultivate ^^.
yeah it shows the voting box and people does it all the time, its annoying me.Quote:

ps that youtube channel is not related to me.
but what can you do rite, if you dont get evidence in time then there's nothing to do about it.
It appears they're trying to remove toxicity or something. They do not appreciate the true value of sc2mafia ^^Quote:

loool. Though, even if it's hard to police, it's probably for the better to ban it tbhQuote:

By its very nature, this is attempting to exploit the name options / background color of the game to conceal oneself. Also, merely because other players break the rules doesn't sanction the behavior. If they get reported for this type Name Abuse, they will get punished as well.Quote:

Leave Training is when you're in the actual game, not the lobby waiting for the game to begin. Leaving a game lobby is not inciting a Leave Train. The purpose of the Leave Train offense is because it can take some time to get a game going given the lobby needing to load up, the game needing to load, etc.Quote:

That's what I thought. I think I misread the reason he posted the video.Quote:

During peak times, it can take 3-5 minutes or so -- usually, it's the same crew of players entering into games so once a previous one ends, a lobby will fill up fast. During off-peak times, it can be much longer.Quote:

yes the video was just showing bananachucho being angry after he did a leavetrain.
this is all i gotta say on bananachucho https://image.prntscr.com/image/537b0...9bf836c304.png
him claiming to give away points in roulette to friends, 5000 points change in 50 games.
first off you dont have 30 000 points with 750 games played. not without other giving you in roulette and or donating.

Pretty sure this was all from 2014-2015 and has been dealt with on the reports side already so I'm not sure why you're bringing it up here?Quote:

Point is your same account can have different values for everything and change 100k points in a day without cheating....
same reason as im stuck at 10 000 to 14 000 points everytime i play even tho i have over 3000 games played.Quote:

[mod]Bank discussion ends now any more questions please see the answer hall[/mod]
I never really took the time to understand points. And I don't think either of us really wanna discuss that kind of crap anyway.Quote:

Agreed, this is Mafia Discussion -- the purpose of this thread is not to impugn other players in particular.Quote:

Cant you just make it so that you cant use those colors. Cant you just update the codes that work?
As background, the colors are determined via HTML hexadecimal codes. Given the number of digits, there are something like 16.7 million different color possibilities. It would be a very onerous task to hardcode all the ranges of colors that show up very dark or unreadable and that analysis is somewhat subjective anyway. The overwhelming majority of players understand that deliberately making your name unreadable or blank is against the rules and those who don't will either be told and learn (verbal warning), reported and stop after they are punished (watch list), or continue to violate the rules and be point banned.Quote:
