I take offensive at that. I didn't count, I copied and pasted into word and did a letter count. It came up with 480.

Not only that, it F's up the recent threads thingy on the main site. Why do people feel the need to reply to threads like that?

It's all us kids out of school. Too immature to do something productive, have to mess up everyone else's fun.

It's almost as inventive as annoying... Time to limit the nations names?

I ask that this user WMWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW be deleted, and he will probably create more similar troll names and they'll need to be deleted too; also that not only his posts are 'edited' by the mods but preferably completely deleted. The reason is that he's using the word wrap rules of no spaces in long strings of letters to bend the forum width, in both the nation name left panel and the message panel. He's messed up several threads this way and will probably do more. If you need any evidence we can supply the thread URLs.

Well, then it is the length that is the problem, right?

I mean, its not that you need a character limit on nation names.Ahhh. . . but there is a character limit of 22 letters. You have no idea how many times I've had an ide for a name that was a few letters(usually one) too long, and I very often have names that just fit (I always type space on the end to see how close I came, and very often I can type none.

Well, if we've killed spaces/null characters at the beginning and end of nations names, seems logical to assume that one could require a space somewhere in the name, but...

It's still sad that you did that. :wink:
