Starting Battles

Website
You should always use your "official" nick, as in the nick you usually use, and the team you're a member of if any.
(*)
In extreme cases these can give an immediate one year or even permanent ban.
Final word
The admins always have the final word, however if you feel you're being treated unjustly, you can send a ban appeal and another admin will look at it. Serious cases will always be discussed in the admin group.
