You Can Help Stop Identity Theft
I was checking my dotabuff earlier and noticed something weird:
http://dotabuff.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=rhexcelion
…a second “RHExcelion” had shown up.
This, of course, was clearly unacceptable. I wouldn’t care if someone used the name on a random forum I don’t visit, but I play Dota religiously. So I tried adding the guy on Steam to nicely ask him to change his name.
He didn’t respond.
Well okay, maybe he was AFK. I added a few of his friends as well.
One of them accepted the friend invite. I explained the situation to him, and he proceeded to laugh at me.
Then I was promptly blocked by the both of them.
Dear leechers, please add this guy on Steam and ask him (nicely) to change his name. If he ignores you, add and ask his friends as well. Don’t stop sending requests until he does:

PS: You can add me on Steam if you’d like. I only play Dota 2 though:

After all, I am the real RHExcelion.

This really isn’t worth you losing sleep over it.
I hate this kind of things… Adding that guy “nicely”…
You sound entitled.
Extremely.
lol really? Poor you…
Someone impersonating someone?
ON THE INTERNET?
Oh dear no, this cannot be! We must do something about this AT ONCE!
Quickly, there is no time to waste!
I hate it when people steal other people’s names.
It really sucks.
Damn them, wait until it happens to them-oh wait, they dont have an identity to steal.
You do realize if it’s a troll, noticing the troll is what it wants? Don’t feed the troll.
It’s not though. I don’t know the guy.
i think your the troll…
who the fuck cares?
everybody got some people that are using the same name…
be happy that your name seems worth to copy.
Not everybody.
You may not know the guy, but maybe he knows this site and thus your name.
Nahh doubt it.
Change your name instead. I’ll allow you to have this one.
With several billion people on the planet, its difficult to have your name always yours.
When World of Warcraft was released I had Nian. Account name and player name, by the time I quit 3 years later, there were dozens of them.
Admittedly with the upper and lower cases the same, that’s cheeky and you probably have a case that he was unlikely to have come up with it himself. Claim prior art or some such, see how you go with the devs.
Yep… sucks having some idiots steal the name you came up with. Can’t they come up with something original themselves? If Valve allowed us to change our account name(not username), that would be fantastic.
Seriously your this worried over a name? On the internet. I play dota2 as well. Its just a name. No1 cares what your name is as long as you play well. Do you know how many people on the internet are named LightOfHeaven, Dendi, kabbu, BigPlays, Singsing. No1 cares about your name. Just chill.
so this is where I also change my name to RHExcelion right? Also I heard you suck at moba games. <3
YEAHH SPAM REQUEST?!!! WE STILLL DOIN IT? LETS DO ITTT
the fake RHEx has a hot Kougyoku pic LOL. his stats doesnt seem too bad either 51% win rate is alright imo
BRB changing my name to RHExcelion on Steam
Err. What difference is it going to make whether someone else is using the same handle or not?
Hmm think I may change my steam name to RHExcelion too, sounds nice.
Any one seen this:
“RHE
Hi, I’m RHExcelion, Great Leader of Commie Subs. I play Dota 2 all day.
Freely accepting donations of games/items/generosity.”
-taken from the troll’s steam account page…
are you troll?
because that’s what RHE’s account page
Actually, I think that is from the original’s page.
I cannot say you did not deserve this, RHExcelion. You did give bad people permission to use your genemap. Now RHExcelion#9982 is getting all up in your grill.
UTW is that way —>
…
interestingly, UTW IS the tab to the right on my page :))
Interestingly, I was getting it from the Mazui side of things.
I played DotA 2 once and went 0-20. Might be a good time to start playing again.
It’s kind of eerie for me, but I might have been in close proximity to the troll irl
I was in a computer lab with two people across from me playing dota.
I remember them talking about trolling and then blocking someone…
small world?
i have a friend who’s into fansubbing (im pretty sure hes in this group too) and he always asks me if I play dota 2 with RHE. i find it kind of questionable that you posted your own steam prof seeing as you’re pretty much friend capped but maybe we’ll run into each other some game (so i can wreck u m8)
Don’t worry mate. I delete people to make room when I get friend capped.
Let us all spam him with “when does anime xy finally come out???”.
Trust me, he will change his name pretty soon….
You named yourself after a Device from Nanoha A’s. You have zero claim for originality.
RHExcelion has done enough for the fansubbing community that he deserves our help on this. Honestly. Fansubbing is a thankless job, and for once, he’s asking us to do him a solid and help out. We owe RHExcelion this, simply from gratitude for all the entertainment he’s given us.
RHExcelion 2016
MEHxcelion
Aren’t usernames supposed to be unique in Dota2? How can someone copy yours?
wait a minute… How do we know that you’re not the fake RHExcelion?
there’s 3 RHExcelion’s now…
and all 3 play dota. i think this isn’t going to end well
inb4 5 man pubstacks with everybody named RHExcelion…
you guys are either stupid or don’t care much for gaming world.
RHExcelion probably has good stats and prob gain some kind of status from this. if that player use the same username, and play crappy, think how it affect the player? have you even seen any of the gamers online? so many of them are famous with both their real name and moniker.
Also, RHExcelion should contact the devs and inform them that someone else is using the same nick, as that not suppose to be possible on DOTA2 as each nick are registered on the system and if it detect a dupilication, it won’t allow you to use it. which mean, that player somehow found a loophole that must b close.
this happens all the time with much more famous players. rhe just has autism
It intrigues me how someone can get so butthurt over some insignificant copycat and then proceed to try and recruit an army of people to send requests and ask why hes trolling.
bleh just hack that acccount,problem solve
You definitely overestimate the sense of obligation that I feel towards those at commie for your releases. Don’t be so whiney and I could definitely see people trying to spam you friend requests instead.
i’m not sure what you’re implying here. please clarify
Really though? It’s just a steam name.
so much butthurt in this thread
Find more in the next episode of Toaru Kagaku no RHExcelion, “Brothers”
Maybe, I’ll try using that name too. *Evil Grin*
IDENTITY THEFT IS NOT A JOKE, RHE.

.. show me your nicknames and I will tell you who you are.
There’s only one way to get this straight: challenge him and put the name on the line. Well, actually I don’t know anything about Dota but that’s how men would settle things.
Or just wait until he gets bored by the name. The only problem is you already have stirred things too much, tactically unwise. At least that’s how the situation looks to me.
I once had a person in Tera spell my name with a Y’s instead of I’s and not only that he designed his character the same, picked the same class , and joined the same guild I was in at the time. He used to say he was me. Damn weirdos.
Rhe going to be on TERA tonight to do some dungeons?
If I can get stable internet.
Alright. We’ll I’ll be on all night, might be afk sometimes or on my alt but I’ll check.
I will now proceed to register “RHExcelion” on every service I can find ;P
>three rhes now

Scrub.
When your name is an anime character’s weapon it’s hardly suprising that you shall come accross others with the same name, even if it’s a little more obscure than Sephiroth1993 or whatever, just crack open a beer and chill out a little.
Family works in the police services. I’ll pull a few strings. We’ll get him, don’t worry.
