Smee Posted August 3, 2019 Report Share Posted August 3, 2019 As Mitch said, it prevents issues on the back end, BUT there is no reason why they cannot test it On 3/19/2019 at 1:21 AM, Mitch (IFRIT) said: Hello all, I have made a change to the player name system for the server. Moving forward there are going to be some limits to the characters that can be used in your name. This is being done to prevent issues on the back end of things. Below is a list of characters that will be allowed. ' !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~ Thank you, Mitch DonDurka likes this Link to comment
Mitch (IFRIT) Posted August 3, 2019 Report Share Posted August 3, 2019 Again, it had nothing to do with server performance. If the new stuff for v2 displays the special characters correctly..I don't see why not. We can discuss it with ownership. Copa, Steve, Patato and 3 others like this Link to comment

Gen. Henry Arnold Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 V2 will still clean your player name of unusable characters for formatting within in game and saving your name. Easier on us, you don’t need thousands of special characters. Jake and Patato like this Link to comment

Kawaii Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 The amount of potential new players from other modes/servers that get kicked for special characters and don't even try to rejoin makes me sad. Should try to get as many people coming back when V2 drops as possible. Should also consider wiping bans unrelated to scripting/apps.

Crossfade Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 TBH comments like this * V2 will still clean your player name of unusable characters for formatting within in game and saving your name. Easier on us, you don’t need thousands of special characters* Just seems like there are a few lazy devs who dont wanna do what the other devs did for years. Link to comment

Free @王 rando 王 @Clint Beastwood and @BaDaBiNg_10-8 already pretty much did this when they took ownership. They unbanned so many people, If you're banned now you deserve it and are staying banned.

But until we switched to battlemetrics we had no way to prevent it. These new devs have been anything but lazy and have been working their ass off for months. I wouldn't think we need to give them a hard time over special characters in a playername.. it actually has nothing to do with the devs. Its me.. Deal with it. Patato likes this Link to comment
Browny Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 just add them back its what the community want, you should be thankful they have stayed around for so long. Link to comment

cHIP oTLE Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 Blame the faggots that we’re duping and getting away with it because they’re retarded-ass special character names... I know all those gangs that lasted 2 weeks and then disbanded to create a new gang with the same roster LOVED special character gang tags, doesn’t mean they’re missed... they’re gone, get over it.

I have been here a long time too ya know I didn't call them lazy at all. I simply said it seems like there are lazy developers when comments like that are made. When people are given a simple No, not happening without much detail given one is going to assume its been put into the MEH basket and in the 5 or so years i have played here the MEH basket seemed to been filled up with a lot of shit and the OOOO we want this irrelevant shit and has been taking its place. I know they have been working hard and done alot. BUT when a dev says things like - V2 will still clean your player name of unusable characters for formatting within in game and saving your name. Easier on us, you don’t need thousands of special characters.- It sort of sounds abit like well fuck you we aren't going to do anything you ask for... It was a nice addition to the gangs to be able to have different tags with symbols in it. Thanks Edited August 5, 2019 by Crossfade Link to comment
