    I believe the websites that promote evony are the cause of this. Maybe clicking on an advertisement would send you to the page where this is possible. This is just a theory and i am not sure it's 100% correct.

    There are still VERY old evony adds floating around the internets. If you stumble accross one of these, and try to start a new account, it will start you on the latest age2/1 server with whatever name you pick, I was ssf the incredible for a while on one server, i forget which.

    I remember a lot of older players of server 6 having the long names, A few such are Archangel of doom, Rognald jarl of mori, harald the bold, And quite a few shorter names with extra characters in them, IE names with -, ~, or spaces or alt codes in them. another famous example of early server names was the alliance İMISC alliance, Which was made before you couldnt have alt codes in alliance names.

    thanks for the help, i spent about 10 minutes looking into old evony adds and i did end up finding one, can you get banned for having spaces etc in your names now days though?

    i dont belive its against the rules, as far as know its perfectly fine. to my knowledge there is no rule against spaces in the name of characters.

    I'm still trying to figure out why this is not the normal practice? The system is capable of handling those with longer names (ie. SirRealSurreal? can u guess why I'm wanting this on ALL servers I play?)
    The system is MADE to handle it or we wouldn't see "To whisper to a player with a space in their name use ' mark... <etc>" every time we log in. So why do I have to use the name "SirReal" on any other servers I wish to play on. Even worse, I was under the impression a "NameChangerID" would solve the problem. Actually it doesn't either... Kinda glad I didn't purchase it using cents...

    If your name is longer then 10 letters it can't show the whole thing stats and on your player overview and people with real long names it makes the chat look messy
