He did make name stealing impossible, IF you reserved your name on wotmania. Since Balwer thought someone would have stolen his name, I doubt he reserved it. And if he didn't do that, how else would Ben have protected his name? He'd have had to tie it to a particular email address (presumably a personal one of Balwer's that he has for some reason) and hope Balwer uses that one to register.
Yeah, I did think of that, actually, but I wasn't sure what Ben did with existing SNs that weren't reserved, if they were just out there, or dead, or what. I'm kinda tempted to register someone who's been gone for ages, just to check, but I don't want them to show up and be, like, "Which one of you s stole my name?!!!"

I believe Ben went to some lengths to make name stealing nigh impossible.

I'm sure there are plenty of WoT readers that are HUGE Sebban Balwer fans. *NM*
