/who command not showing toonFollow

A funny thing happened last night while camping a giant fort in the Great Divide. I was a little bored with "the Hole" and didn't have a lot of time to grind exp after my "double" exp ran out, so I headed to a zone where I could fool around with easy mobs.

A ranger came up to me and he had a funny name with a underscore between his first and last name. He was roleplaying and stated that he was looking for velium weapons to fill an order and any help would be appreciated. I said "NP" since the weapons are poor on the Tribute Point table. Didn't think much of the guy until I did a /who command and realized that he was not on the list of people in the zone. I checked 4 times to make sure.

I wasn't going to make a stink about it. It really didn't bother me but then someone started asking the same questions over the general chat about this guy. Nothing ever came of it and I logged shortly thereafter. Just kinda strange.

Was he a GM? Or is there someway to disguise yourself and hide from the /who command?

hmmmmm

wonder if you had a chance for a "solo" GM event?

too bad you didn't have some velium weapons to give him!!

i wonder what would of happend ;-P
