Ok. New update. I added little color swatches to the chat that are *loosely* based on IP addresses. What this means is that your color will remain the same regardless of what your user name is, as long as you stay on the same machine. I stress *loosely* based on IP address. You won't be able to get someone's IP address by inspecting the color. And although unlikely, it is possible two people with two different IP addresses will have the same color.
But since that's very unlikely what this does do is point out the duplicate names being used. If five guys are pretending to be Set that should become apparent. And then it's just a matter of which color Set is the real Set. You can probably "prove" who's who just through conversation. But if you're really obsessed with proving it's you I suppose the real person can post their color values here on QBN as a cross-check.
Again, I know this doesn't solve the fact that there aren't accounts, but it's a stop gap measure. I mean... I'm busy coding for a real project here so I can't just recreate QBN from scratch with a bonus chat room feature ;)
