Names in csp

Pls only allow those in names:

1234567890
-:;()$@".,?!'[]{}#^*+=_\|~<>`
qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm

like in cs1.6 I hate those unreadable names and tags from css
or add some special ones like the /

btw those are not in cs1.6 €£¥/ %(this just makes a space)

// In 1.6 the first letter of your name can't be #
example:
#cspromod rules

hope it will be possible in CSP :)

[Moff]

That's a good idea. I always hated this weird symbols you can put in your nickname in CS:S.
They look stupid, and they only making troubles for a server admins.

-¦- ???? ?? ??????

[mikestah]

ill just be happy if i can use ~

This is because nicks and ID's shouldn't interfere with eachother.
rcon kick #35 for example.

ahh.. that makes sense :D

[3k2]

Think it should have more characters available than those listed in #0 - but yeah, it really needs to have less characters available than css has. Especially all those weeeird letter modifying characters need to be removed.

[Barbapapa]

I totally agree with the OP, although it was a nice tool to quickly recognise noobs xD.

[RATpope]

make it any letter availble via keyboard beacause my clan tag is <|RAT|>

[wazer]

keep the css features thats a go :)

[Snapster]

What most people hate is the ALT Code crap kids are using in CSS...


-¦- ???? ?? ???
Like that...

IMO disable alt codes would be a nice idea, as those are juts annoying and kids do it thinking its all "cool" and such.

Humm I'm not a kid anymore but I still use alt250 to get that "ú" on my nickname, dúnadan.bzh .. :cry:

The first post says it all. 8-)

[Juu]

You forgot the ` !

[Bocom]

Well this limitation was in 1.6 because GoldSrc doesn't support Unicode natively. Source does natively support it, thus CS:S and CSP supports it as well. I would leave it alone, but thinking of the admins and such makes me think that you should limit it.

The chat text should not be touched though. One thing I really dislike about 1.6 is that I can't use Swedish letters without certain tricks that might not work anymore in later patches. I do realize that this limitation is due to the aforementioned GoldSrc lack of Unicode support, but still.

good that you say that. in my keyboard layout Z and Y are switched :D
also i cant use üöä but that's not that bad.. i hate these letters.. the german language sux u know?

Why not just let the noobs be noobs and the trolls be trolls? It's not that big of a deal =/ Why limit something that doesn't even really need to be limited.. let the children play.

no remove special letters and signs and stuff ppl's names are to wierd any way -:-

[MaveN]

Sure unicode has its positive sides
You recognize noobs of their names :]


Either way, these are opinions being stated, nobody's saying it will happen, just that some of us would like it to happen.
i'm confident that it will happen since there is no good reason to allow names like -¦- ???? ?? ???...

Im Talking about Names not chat

[downbad]

I thought CSP was for professional gaming only? At least thats they way most people on here are trying to spin it. I dont like the unicode names but shit, let people have their name the way they want it. Plus all you progamers dont pub anyway, you'll never see those names.

I'll pub -.-

So you are one of these unichornkids?
Erm Unicode!O

[adz]

i remember a update on 1.6, you could make ur name very small by doing this

% adz % for EG was cool should be added in csp

Actually that was a bug...

[adz]

Yeh i kno, but it was cool =D

[haGisson]

it was a bug, does it work anymore?

[jediscience]

Agreed, only the standard keyboard characters should be allowed in names/aliases
I dont know about you guys, but when there are cheaters in public servers, its a great hassle trying to kick them out when they have strange and ugly characters in their names or alt-spaces.

Cheaters actually use it to their advantage !

I'm talking about public votekick/voteban
e.g #votekick ALIAS

Pub server regulars arent exactly going to be able to access HLSW now are they?

éÃ*èñê and allow these too because there are some spaniokkles .. lol and french ppl -.-

[haGisson]

öäü should be in there too for the german-speaking players

[madmax]

öäü should be in there too for the german-speaking players
and if whe can have that then i want å for swedish speaking players and then all the russians want there letters and those are fucked up

[Juu]

Ok so if you allow öäüéÃ*èñê, in this case you should allow :

ÀÃ�ÂÃÄÅÃ*áâãäåÈÉÊËèéêëÌÃ�ÃŽÃ�ì Ã*îïÒÓÔÕÖòóôõöÙÚÛÜùúûüüÃ�ýÿ ŒœÆæÇçßÑñ

And I forgot many, like ø????, that some langages use. And what about chinese, japanese and arabic (and korean and more) alaphabet ?
Btw you should add ¿ and ¡ for the spanisches.

So, I think there are only 2 solutions, Unicode or not. :/

[Juu]

(please delete this post I fail edit)

[madmax]

only allow what you can write on a english/american keybord = no fucked up names :D

[dunadan]

Please .. Just leave it as it is in Css except maybe for some caracters that none language actually uses ... Would suck to be bounded by the anglo-saxon's keyboard.. :?

[Phat]

Didn't read the last 2 pages, but make it so people can't use the ` in their name, its really annoying not being able to rcon kick people and having to minimize and run HLSW just to kick some fuck who wont leave your server after a scrim.

[haGisson]

1. tipe in "status" (you get the id's of all players)
2. tipe in "rcon kick #23" (instead of 23 use the id of the player you want to kick)

[sevoii]

oh yes! plz dont allow crappy symbols n shit... totally overboard.

[Wurrey]

I agree, but you could keep them in chat. :geek:

[RATpope]

if unicode is disabled your gonna scare away alot of sourcies keep that in mind thosands of clan tags se unicode unlike my own

<|RAT|>

Edit: delete :9

[haGisson]

who needs all those symbols in the clan tags?

[MaveN]

wo needs all those symbols in the clan tags?
DOT ftw! ......
