Rule 

Username Visible Characters

It would be nice if invisible characters weren't allowed in FRONT of the other characters, that way those people's names could actually show up when using the search function.

Am I in the clear on this if my username was made back in 2011 without special characters?

You should be since you don't have any special characters in your name. He also said he wouldn't force anyone to change their username.

Thanks for the heads up. I was under that assumption but just wanted to be sure. #0usernamechangesclub4lyfe

Where did he say that? Anyway then he'll just turn their account into mush? No reason to force anyone, but expect the mush part then I'd guess.

I think that's fairly clear. Using hidden/invisible characters to create short usernames is going to result in me taking your account and turning into mush.

Suggest you immediately edit your username if you're violating this policy.

Come @ me, I dare you bro

He said it way earlier in the post.

Edit: Just noticed that isn't this thread.

If I were you, I wouldn't trust what Ominous has to say.

Wait for Omniscient to reply to the thread.

If he doesn't, maybe you should talk to him directly.

Take that back, I am not sure. I thought this was a different thread at first, but it says you need 4 visible characters. So honestly I am not sure.

Hopefully you do not have to change your name because that is one dope signature. Never seen anything like it.

I've always had the policy about minimum visible characters as informal. But I would always take action against one or two character accounts and allow 3 characters visible. But officially this is now set and I've placed it at 4 minimum.

Looks like you're changing your name, dude.

I have sent 630 a PM.
Use me as an example, don't use the invisible characters.
Great to see this enforced.

Thanks for the update!
