If you copy another's name -> idiot/asshole/troll
If you happen to have the same name (the odds are low anyway) -> you'll surely have another nickname to choose
A new rule is pointless and is against the current "the less rules the better" policy

Introducing even more rules is the worst thing that could possibly happen. It has to be avoided at all cost.
So simple answer to


To clarify what

Sample: I won't ban anyone for choosing the nick "bob2" because "bob" was already taken. It's a generic name. But I would ban bob2 if he would start to behave like bob and use the same avatar and signature because that would show me that he is a stupid fake-troll. Also I would ask someone with the nick "Starkkz2" to change the name because "Starkkz" is not a very generic name and also it would be too easy to confuse the two.
Common sense is sometimes better than a super complicated set of rules.
