Am I seeing double?

http://scratch.mit.edu/users/paddIe2see

Apparently this guy tagged RHY's latest project with "paddle2see was here!"

Uh... how did he make a duplicate username?

This account doesn't have a capital username, so that explains why.

So you could make a "Floatingmagictree" account then?

Re: Am I seeing double?

No, it's not the username capitals. Copy and paste the username into Word (or similar) then change the font to Times New Roman (or other font that shows capital i's differently from lowercase L's). The bit that you thought was an "L" is actually a capital "i". And the tag was: "paddie2see was here" - not "paddle2see was here". Look very closely, and you'll see that it's true. I knew something was up when the tags showed the "i" as lowercase. It seems that our imposter didn't think of the lowercase tagging  tongue

@ Lucario621: You can't have the same username with a different arrangement of capitalisation, I don't believe.

NOPE

Look closely at the URL  wink

He used an "I" (i as in "igloo") instead of an l ("L" as in "lemon"). A lot of fonts make them appear the same.  yikes

See: I l I l <-very small difference. No difference in some fonts

Scratch does not allow duplicate usernames even if capitals are changed.  tongue

Re: Am I seeing double?

It's my joke. I actually used that account for a joke ^_^ XD (but I did not actually pretend to be paddle2see, I just took screenshots of paddIe2see in forums).

Sorry about the tag RHY, remove it if you want.

paddIe2see has an "I" instead of an "l"

(sorry for any inconveniences scratch team. Delete the account now!)

Multiple accounts are allowed... And that was just to make a creepy screenshot.

I never really posted anything that was pretending to be a mod?

I never said anything to anyone or replied on the forums. I never even typed "paddle2see was here!", I typed "paddIe2see was here!", so it's your fault for not seeing the"i"

Sorry scratch team, I made that 6 months ago when I was new, and I still don't see how (if it is) that is against the rules since I didn't say anything to anyone or pretend to be part of the scratch team and give false information... Please delete the accounts! (or keep them and change the password so that  we can never have these 2 clones again).

Impersonating other people is considered disrespectful as it creates confusion and often leads to anger and mistrust.  It also creates extra work for the Forum Moderators and the Scratch Team.  Please do not pretend to be other people by using fake accounts or even by faking quotes in posts.
