white space for names

[theTrav]

Looks like you can create characters with nothing but white space for the name.

Seems like a way of anonymising. Punctuation alone is pretty annoying, but white space just seems wrong. Please do some basic validation on names, not censorship, just validation

What, you don't like people named 'iiiiiiii'? or ' '?

but you can only have one blank right?? right???

surely thats no different from everyone naming themselves raephire

I have no problem with using letters.

I have a problem with white space particularly as ' ' is counted as different to ' ' and it can be used as anonymity.

I have a lesser problem with pure punctuation names in that I simply don't like them.

but you can only have one blank right?? right???z

That's not my understanding, you can have single space, double space, triple space etc.

If that's currently possible then I would think that's a bug as well...

i thought you had some way of checking account names

Oh, right, the account name is not blank.

Most people can't see account names though and I won't be able to for ever either

Well, yes, I know it's kind of a problem. I'll do something about it sooner or later.
