Funny how the most angry, immature post in this thread is yours. His argument is coherent, reasonable and calmly delivered. Although it`s never affected me I agree that minimum character requirements for gaming id`s are pointless. | ||

In the end none of us can do anything about it though, you wont get anything done with this blog. imo this, and I doubt op believes anything will happen, more a vent of frustration? | ||

Or maybe devs generally think short names like "a" are boring and want to force people to be more creative, but that would seem pretty silly. | ||

The answer is "Money". Probably with technical undertones, and possibly hints of security. | ||

Yes, it's stupid and they should let you have rd. does steam? Also, rather than arrdee or aredee you should just double the rd one way or the other. So either: Rd (doesnt work) Rdrd (doesnt work) Rdrdrd Or: Rd (doesn't work) Rrdd (doesnt work) Rrrddd | ||

Suggestions are nice but they're beside the main point. I've contemplated and have resorted to using alternate variations for years. I shouldn't have to. :/ | ||

Like I have a bug bite on my leg, a way bigger problem. If you don't like a discussion, you don't have to post in it. I, for example, think the ABL thread is retarded. That means that I don't read it or post in it. Same thing with My Little Pony thread or the kpop thread. If you don't want to participate in a discussion, don't post. | ||

Like I have a bug bite on my leg, a way bigger problem. There isn't a single way around this issue, I either have the name or I don't. It's black and white. What do you propose in my situation? Am I supposed to just lay back and accept it because it's a small issue that would be the single most simple fix ever? You don't have to be such an ass. | ||

Accept what you cannot change and does not matter. It is a virtue we should all try for. | ||

While I don't really think it is a big deal (I don't even think rd thinks its a huge deal) I understand what he is trying to get across and he doesn't deserve to be attacked for trying to start a discussion. You look silly if you reply in an investigatory manner. | ||

Stupid. Block names like "niggerbaby" or "yousuckdick" shit like that, but why block 2 letter names or allow retarded names like a barcode. Some people are so moronic they do a |||||||||| with a clan tag that makes it quite obvious who they are, defeating the original purpose. | ||
