you can't unbind ~ and `, they are hardcoded.

Damnit.  I hate myself for overlooking that when I even use the damn things, but yeah, .cfg's.

Sooo, I'm gonna go over to my shame corner now, to think about what I've done.

Having a ~ in your name should be banned.
It makes it harder for morons to ban you.

In the meantime everyone who has an all red name can be banned too, because they're an eyesore. And people with white names should be banned just for sucking.

He said having a tilde (~) in your name should be banned.. Not the people who use them.
