Hey, I must have been in a world of my own during the phase 2 of the beta; I failed to notice what Blizzard changed about the nickname system. Could someone who actually paid attention to this notify me of the changes. Will only one nickname be allowed now, so impostors of famous SC2 players will get their way, or will it be that multiple people can have access to the same nickname with some sort of system that differentiates them? Thanks, Ben.
In Phase 2 you could have whatever name you wanted. But each person had their own three digit "character code" to differentiate between the people with the same name. This code didn't show up in-game though, but it was required to add someone as a friend if you didn't know their email. I only saw it once throughout the whole second phase and I forget which window it was in, so you could have very easily missed it. I don't even remember what mine was. Hopefully they'll fix it for the release though, I think the fact that anyone can have the name "IdrA" or "WhiteRa" is just annoying.
