making "GM" in a name impossible

Post by meway »

sorry to be off topic but for the devs is it possible to block G and M from being next to each-other at login? Also I want to make my client capitalize the user names. there is a bug if i log in with meway with the m lowercase <-- acts like its a blank account. and Meway acts like its my account.

login data is case sensetive once there is a account with a different capitalization and blocking everything containing a gm is a very bad idea since many perfectly fine names might include a gm.

You could edit the Being:setName method and make the first character uppercase.
