Title: Color Whoring
Post by: GeneralScott on February 11, 2011, 06:55:51 pm
I like my name with tons of colors in it. Like ^4D^7u-^4Gen^e^4ralSc^7o^4tt
I need to switch the clan tag to something else, 3 charachters longer. Is there some hack anywhere that lets you use names with insane colorwhoring without cutting them off? Thanks. If not, 1.2 needs a fix for that. :/

No.

Each colour setting counts as two characters in your name, which is limited to 32 characters.
If this were changed to not count colours as characters, I can think of three attacks and two targets that would be easily exploitable using this.

Besides,I've used rainbows in my name for a few years now and haven't really had difficulty with name limits. If you need more colours than a rainbow name, you're using too many colours.
