    I have someone who is able to change their names. For example, my name in-game is mark, the kid can change his name to mark as well but have no crown. He is impersonating staff and scamming players. Any clue how to prevent this?

    hes likely adding spaces before or after the username, or some other character which has a similar effect. on login call add:

    username = username.trim();

    and that should fix it

    He can also copy other players looks, equipment, etc. It is not just the name. And he can sit there changing names over and over while still in-game

    That is what I am thinking too. But since everyone else can see him changing names, etc that means that it is getting processed by the server itself then being sent to all of the other clients, therefore there should be a way of stopping it when the server goes to process it.

    You say: cheat client
    I say: insufficient server security (incomming data checks).

    I mean, this is virtually harmless right? It doesn't seem like they can actually use the items, or stay as their name.
