It is banneable to copy someones nick?
so there's a guy that is constantly copying my ingame name, exact color codes, exact color distribution in the letters, etc.
he changes 1 letter so it's not 100% copy but anyways it can cause confussion around other people
i'm totally sure he's copying me because a few minutes ago i joined the arena where he was playing and i changed my nickname in front of him; the next map he changed his nickname too to be simmilar to mine
example:
FIRST MAP:
my nickname: ~SeBaX~>
his nickname: ~SebaZ~>
SECOND MAP:
my nickname: ~SeBaX^
his nickname: ~SebaZ^
(guess i don't have to say that i changed the colors too and he also copied that)
here in the forum is pretty noticeable the difference, but ingame not
so i want to know if this is banneable to make a proper report with screenshots, thanks

It's not punishable as Vitalic said. However, (and to my knowledge) there is a certain extent to this as it's forbidden to copy your exact same name and pretend to be you, as it can be considered as stealing your image and I've punished quite a few of those type of guys in the past.

Just be creative and find an unique nickname...
