I didn't understand what those 4 post has, if the person is trying to pretend as OP or taking advantage of the name then he deserved to be tagged but as far as I went through the discussion here it seems we are saying he deserves negative tag just for selecting the name which I am not going to agree with.

Honestly, until now I didn't know theymos meant anything apart from what the moniker was. I even thought it was an English coinage, comprising two words – "they mos(t)". So, what about for those who aren't Indonesian; what difference does that mean? I think we're blowing this whole thing about random username out of proportion. Every username may mean something in other people's eyes apart from what the user intends it to mean. Do new people coming on here to register now have to check the meanings of the monikers they're choosing and then run a check on them to ascertain the monikers don't cross paths with any other here? I don't get it. The basic thing should be to watch those similar names if they intend to scam and then tag them when they do. There shouldn't be anything more to it. Usernames are just random names.
Yes, it might mean nothing to you and others who don't speak Indonesian, but to me it was a bit confusing. Honestly - I wouldn't and have someone else tag it just for that matter, but just wanted to hear suggestions if someone who speaks the same local language as you uses the same/ identical name as the staff or other users on the forum.Sorry OP, I've spoiled your topic with different discussions a few times, but I believe your issue with Little Mouse10 should be resolved.
March 07, 2022, 10:05:11 AM
Why did you use neutral feedback instead of negative? I could believe someone came up with "Little Mouse" as a username, and added a number because the name was taken already. But considering they use the same (small) local board as you, I would say they deserve a red Imposter tag.
I totally agree with LoyceV! Normally, I would've given him/her the benefit of the doubt, but because of the highlighted part and the fact that Little Mouse's negative feedback isn't reflecting on that account [by default], I'll be tagging it as well!- Despite what @Little Mouse10 said on his/her last post [Google translate version], nothing is stopping that user from suddenly coming back and continuing from where he/she left off!
The following thread might come in handy in the future: Similar Usernames Attempting To Scam - Defaults Please Tag

I guess that I was not clear enough, but that was exactly what I meant by adding the feedback "for better visibility"
Yup, sorry, then the mistake is on my side for not understating properly what you meant.
my feedback will be visible on the trust numbers in every post (in most of the boards, but not all of them).
The only thing is that I felt that neutral trust was enough...

Indeed, in some boards Trust score is not shown by default, but people can still see it, if they are interested, by accessing user's profile page. About the neutral tag I also think this should suffice for now, at least. After all, Little Mouse10 did not perform any scam (attempt / yet). If anything (bad) happens, you can always change your neutral feedback into a negative one.
I knew that I'm DT2
Congrats for getting DT2

It's not necessary to have a DT(1) member tag him anymore (of course, unless someone really wants to do that). NeuroticFish, you are a DT2 member

I notice that you tag him already by neutral trust but it's not visible for people that don't trust you. You should request to a DT here to tag him so that normal user that is using default trust only can see the tag
I've also gave neutral trust feedback, for better visibility, good idea @dimonstration
It's not necessary to have a DT(1) member tag him anymore (of course, unless someone really wants to do that). NeuroticFish, you are a DT2 member (as you are included by me in my Trust list, and I am DT1), thus your feedback is visible in DT view. If you access https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/little-mouse10-3453061 you can see. Besides, the user was also tagged by another DT2 member (shasan) and this feedback is also visible by default (meaning in DT view). Feedbacks made by DT2 users act the same way as the ones written by DT1 users -- they influence Trust score in the same manner.

Of course because your username is very identical to theymos if translated into Indonesian. I don't know what other people think of you, but I feel like you really confuse me about why you're using that name for.
March 06, 2022, 02:40:43 PM
Theymos and merekamo are double names or same name in Indonesian, is that something to be tagged or just ignored because everyone is free to choose their username??
The username Theymos is used base on English and it will not be merekamo until you translate it. Merekamo is Indonesian name. So there is a huge different anyone may translate any language and use the meaning base on his/her local language. If any Bengali people use the username Taramos then that will be not a sin for using the username though the meaning of Theymos in Bengali is Taramos. March 06, 2022, 02:33:31 PM
Yes Theymos and merekamo are double names when translated into Indonesian and when translated into English then look different. but Did I make a mistake? unless if I use a name like Theymos- Theymos1- Theymos2 . . . and then I abuse the Account then you have the right to tagged me.
Of course because your username is very identical to theymos if translated into Indonesian. I don't know what other people think of you, but I feel like you really confuse me about why you're using that name for.Yes, it doesn't matter as long as you don't aim to resemble theymos or someone else in a different language. However, some names that are synonymous with staff, admin or someone in good standing here may not be liked even if you don't disclose what you intend to use the name for.
Theymos and merekamo are totally different unless you know about the Indonesian language. I would never know about their difference if it was not told here.

March 06, 2022, 02:05:09 PM
This simply means you are making a name for you here LOL. Although I do not think this will matter much. The suffix 10 is very much visible. If anyone knows you then they can easily differ between yours and his username.
And even if they miss the difference in the username, they will still be able to see the neutral trust before making any financial deal with "Little Mouse"
March 06, 2022, 02:01:29 PM
Little Mouse, are you going to release your token by any chance?

https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/little-mouse-token-3332805
Its difficult to stop people from using the similar names as there is no check to this. Sometimes there is no option specially when you are using your real name and you find that it has already been taken. So the first option comes to your mind to add any number and create the account.
Don't know if LittleMouse10 created the account with bad intentions
March 06, 2022, 01:47:02 PM
Except the user in question had been lurking here and snooping before registering that account, I don't see how it would be possible for them to know what account is influential or not here. I'm sure the new user got so much attention on this because of the pedigree and activities of Little Mouse whose account they've similarity with. If the username had coincided with a less ambitious account, no one would've raised an eyebrow. For me, the deal would've been to give that new account a close monitoring to see what they're up to, instead of tagging it straight up. This coincidence could be a harmless one, come to think of it. Well, I hope such "harsh" action on the new user won't scare them away from this forum, anyway.

Thanks and yeah it's noticeable. I made this thread to link my neutral feedback to that profile so that someone doesn’t get confused. I know this isn't going to make much difference but still, I'm being transparent from my part as I got some PM back in the days about Telegram impersonator of mine for scam attempt.
It's good as you voice out early, because probably if you haven't make this public clarification, the account might commit abnormalities in the community and someone else where who refused to look deep into the account to notice the difference will assume you are the one, so i like exactly what you did, because the early the better, maybe the user of the account create it on purpose of making you a victim in future, kudos for your fast detection. March 05, 2022, 01:17:23 PM
Imposter, I think neutral feedback is enough unless he tries to scam anyone. Seems two neutral feedback showing to me by default. No worries since you already share with the community. Just keep him in the eye if he tries to be you. So we may check again if anything happens.
March 05, 2022, 12:44:31 PM
I was just wondering what you thought of the nearly identical names when I enabled translation. theymos quite often translates to merekamo in Indonesian, while I found someone registering an account with the name merekamo. I barely recognize two users if I don't open the profile or try to see what's posted. Theymos and merekamo are double names or same name in Indonesian, is that something to be tagged or just ignored because everyone is free to choose their username??

I do not think the user should receive negative tag because the user has not tried any scam attempt.
What can I say: I disagree.Quote
If any username like this should receive negative trust then this type of account should not be allowed to open.
The forum can't (technically) limit all similar usernames. You can't use "satoshi" in a username, but that's about it. March 05, 2022, 11:31:08 AM
Why did you use neutral feedback instead of negative?
I do not think the user should receive negative tag because the user has not tried any scam attempt. Or the user has never mentioned anywhere either on the forum or anywhere else that the user is the alt of the OP. I think anyone should have a choice of his/her own to select any username which is available. If any username like this should receive negative trust then this type of account should not be allowed to open. To make sure that the mentioned account and the op is not same person, neutral trust should be enough. 
March 05, 2022, 09:11:24 AM
Personally, I do not see that the username is something unique and the user did not put a sign indicating that it is an alternative to your account, for example, he did not add your telegram id, or add words such as _away, _alt, _home, and others. Therefore, it is better to give him a neutral feedback and check his account, whenever he indicates to you, feedback will changed into red.

Little Mouse10 has been created yesterday. I just have noticed the account because they have posted in the local thread. The username is exactly as of mine, with 10 in the end, I'm posting it here because I want you to confirm that I'm not the owner of the account. Also, be aware that there are telegram imposters of me. I will not be responsible for any loss if you have been trapped by a scammer. My telegram- @LT_Mouse
I think someone love you that's why created an account associated with your username. Still the account has not intention to create any scam that's why I have given neutral trust for now. I have seen the account at the time of posting and I wanted to pm you and the newly created account owner. But I was asleep that's why I was away from doing that.Regarding telegram: the impersonator/impersonators of you might be (most probably) scammer.

Imagine something like this.After building up a good rank the user scam someone. The victim creates a scam accusation against the user. Everyone think you were the owner of that account because the name looks similar. You get ruined LOL
Well yeah! Good for you. The idea is good!
Forum users tend to use the same username and add a suffix to it when they create alt acounts (a way to say this is my alt: theymos/theymos_away, hilariousandco/hilariousetc, LoyceV/LoyceMobile...). So, someone who didn't read this thread or didn't see the neutral tag would think Little Mouse created this alt for whatever reason!
I get that totally. 
March 04, 2022, 06:38:12 AM

and takes you as example. But I would keep an eye on him nonetheless.You did the right thing by leaving him a neutral feedback. It will serve as a warning for others and will absolve you from all responsibilty in case this user gets involved in shady activities.

I notice that you tag him already by neutral trust but it's not visible for people that don't trust you. You should request to a DT here to tag him so that normal user that is using default trust only can see the tag. Since you are a campaign manager, You are prone to impersonating so its good thing that you notice him immediately before he can scam someone especially participants of your campaign. I saw many tactics like this that scammer will ask private key of participants.
I hope a DT can see your thread.

You've tagged that account. Not much else you can do, especially as you don't have an especially unique username, so you can't tell 100% that you are targeted by an impersonator.
