Who is the imposter!

Post by Tacloban »

What lyin thievin varmit took the unsullied name of Tacloban in the Powerlobby? It's an outrage! and so forth and so on. I go to register in the Powerlobby page and there already is somebody named Tacloban. I don't want people to think that they've accomplished anything special by whippin Tacloban, and you know my pride won't let me fight under any other name. So if you'll come clean and pick a new name, there'll be no trouble.

Much obliged

On the 1st time entering MP screen, I (probably mistakenly) entered the name Tacloban in the fist bar in the upper right, before going down and entering the same name as well as my password and confirm password. I clicked "Create New Account". The popup message said that the account name was taken, select another name. I tried it again with and without the name in the top bar with the same result. It just seems a bit far fetched that two people in this game would choose the name "Tacloban".

Thanks
Jim

The names for PowerLobbies cover many games, not just GB. Battle HQ from Wargamer uses the PowerLobbies system so it could be someone (even you) who made an account there some time ago.

Hey Tac

I had the thing happen when I tried using 'Chamberlain' in the Lobby.

I could not believe it either. @*&! :angry:

I ended up with 'JChamberlain'

And to what Jim said, I had read this also in another post !!!

Oh well, see you on the Battlefield ;)

Why, just as you do now; by my colorful franchise logo on the side of my ammo wagons.
