I and l are not the same

Avatar of autobunny

so a capital 'i' and a lowercase 'L' look the same on the default font here.   that has led to a lot of account spoofing.  latest victims & perps respectively being:

@IAMBBW of @lAMBBW

@woollensock of @woolIensock

perhaps chess.com, when checking for unique handles during account creation, should match these letters and cases accordingly and prevent creations of such accounts; or use a different font which differentiates between them.

Back in ROBLOX, many people followed this formula.. fake accounts and etc.

Avatar of autobunny

the solution looks simple enough although a little restrictive.

while this is a highly discriminatory song, things might have been different had the devs been raised on sesame street

Years ago, @pdela trolled us a bit by creating a sockpuppet based in such phenomenon.

I agree that I (capital i) and l (lowercase L) need to be distinguishable. That's one of the major flaws with this font style.

It is funny when the trolled got trolled. XD.

Looks like one person but it is not. XD

Don't expect any consistency when it is about this kid.

Avatar of Pulpofeira

He's not a prince anymore though, as I told the kid himself, now we have to support two kings and two popes.
