My recommended version:
"You may not impersonate or present yourself to be a representative of CCP or an EVE Online volunteer. You may not falsely present yourself to be another player or character."
These parts are generally dumb: representative of , group of players or NPC entity.

I think some people take exception to the addition of 'presenting yourself' as the person entirely, but understand that names in Eve are confusing.
So maybe something more like: "You may not impersonate or present yourself to be a representative of CCP or an EVE Online volunteer. You may not take advantage of another player, corporation, or alliance by using a similar character name, and presenting yourself as the original character." |

I think we're all uniformly against using the eve font and/or bad spelling to impersonate other people or corporations or alliances. (I petitioned a group called 'Goonwaffe.' after someone transferred a TCU to them.)
But the question remains: Can we impersonate another player by saying 'Hey, I'm The Mittani, let me into corp and give me access to the wallet'. Any reasonable person that does this without checking with the main should suffer the consequences. |

I take exception to this, due to the sheer number of pilots who want to role play. If they want to pretend to be Amarr, who cares, they're not hurting anyone, and the UI is very clear on who is PC and who isn't.

I also disagree with this, people suck at spelling. Why make their lives more difficult? The UI is not the best for dealing with odd spellings or small tiny dots, when the portraits and/or pictures the exact same. |

Can we get a red or blue update on this topic? I think we have some semblance of consensus among the players, at least. |

This one line sounds like 'This is against the TOS', rather than 'It is impossible to do because you are you.'
