So... What does one do about something like this?

Archive: 24 posts


It seems that someone has taken a particular liking to my costume, profile... everything.

Let me show you what I mean.

This is my picks of the week level:

...and this is someone else's.

http://lbp.me/v/zkkdd6

He took the picture of me out of my level, and took a picture of it on a material. You can tell because it's not as clear. Also, his "picks of the week" level even copies my layout in the beginning. He has things up of my friends in his level whom he's never met, and he even used my profile picture as his profile picture.

From the looks of his ratings on levels, he also took the stickers off of my sackbot in one of my levels and made my costume.

You can tell because (for one, my clearer version is my LBPC avatar and my costume is in my signature) and two, his image is blurry and is clearly a picture of a picture...

I tried talking to him about being original, and that if he put his mind to it, I'm sure he could come up with his own theme, costume, and everything. I even offered to help.

I guess there might be nothing I can do about it, but one of the reasons I made the profile image/costume was to be original.

Have any of you been impersonated?

Wow! Honestly, I hate people like that.

I'm lucky no ones ever tried to copy off me... as far as I'm aware? :|

He obviously has some sort of crush on you... I'd just ignore it completely. People like this that get awe-struck with someone are just sad and lonely people, and 99.9% of them are of very low intelligence. His efforts to win your love aren't working, so just let it be. Don't give him the attention he is craving. The more you nibble at the bait, the more likely it is that he will think he is winning your love and approval. Sometimes you just gotta' be mean to a girl like this, and let him know she's not the one for you by ignoring his attempts to win your heart.

I've never been impersonated, and couldn't really care if someone did impersonate me. I mean heck... more Rustbukkit's in the world would only make it a better place really, so it's no biggy. Until they start doing things that are defamatroy to my character, in which case I'd then contact SONY and have them deal with it directly.

ha that is hilarious. i agree with rustbukkit, im sure if you ignore him though he will just end up making some friends and becoming more original so i shouldnt worry. as long as people dont claim that you copied him then its all fine right?2011-04-03 18:14:00

From his history, it looks as if he might be very young and probably doesn't know any better. He seems to have taken a liking to your pick of the week level and is trying to emulate it. I guess you should be....flattered?2011-04-03 18:15:00

The annoying thing is that people now don't ever listen or accept things from other people. You offored to help and he's rejected (by ignoring you, which is what I gathered from the first post). Why he's taken a particular interest to you I can't tell, but it's kind of weird. Maybe he's seen you've got plays and decided if he fools people he can get them to go to him and he'll effectivly 'steal' yours, I don't know. I also wouldn't put my own levels in the picks of the week, that sort of defeats the point.2011-04-03 18:27:00

Deadtro.

Deadtro and I have a complicated history. However, I can assure you my impersonator has never met him.

So...you now have an arch enemy with whom you are engaged in a long, embittered war and one obsessed fan who desperately wants to be you?

You really need to change your cologne.

I would imagine it's a kid who want's to be more popular. So he transforms into someone more popular. 2011-04-03 20:16:00

That gave me a good chuckle.

I talked to him, and he claims that he's not copying me because he didn't steal my earth. 2011-04-03 21:03:00

You black out for a couple hours and do everything over again. Then, when you wake up, you don't remember it.2011-04-03 21:08:00

Well this (like everybody else said) is probebly a crush or a younger user. However it is hilarious in my opnion that if you could just see lots of little impersinators of you running about the LBP community so its like you'r everyone. No is that just me =(2011-04-03 21:43:00

Are you sure your "friend" Deadtro1 isn't doing this using an alias account, or maybe he put someone else up to this just to give you grief? He's a well known troll in LBP who has historically targetted and made life a misery for other players. He even claims himself "god of trolls" and his hearted list reads like a rogues gallery that includes russelsmuscles, stephanie ravens, numerous players with the word troll somewhere in their user name, and....um...wait a second...

...you?!

His name is also Godlike... and he wants to be like you. This Deadtro guy sounds fishy to say the least.2011-04-04 01:35:00

I told you. My history with him is complicated.

It's not him. He certainly doesn't like me at the moment, but he has better things to do than do what my impersonator has done.

Is your impersonator's name Tyler Durden by any chance? It would explain a lot.2011-04-04 03:06:00
