Saw this person in RA today...

Is this new? I always thought you couldn't have numbers in your name...

Just tried creating a char, your right, no numbers in the name. Anyone have any ieas?

Havre Fras · Nov 18, 2007, 12:30 PM // 12:30

This pic is from months ago, way before Factions was out. I was told it was because my comp wouldn't display foreign characters but i'm not really sure if it was.

Oh well, its possible, but impossible for us "non-asian" players.

Any whats with the wolf's arse in the screenie you took?

It was possible back in 2005 and might still be. I used to see lots of Asian players that had numbers in their character names as well as their guild tags. Don't know about now though. Honestly can't say I've seen anyone with numbers in their characters name since then aside from the test characters used on the developer server.

I think I said something about this a couple of weeks ago.

Hindu-Arabic numbers are definitely not part of any Asian language.

I don't see why they are allowed to have numbers in their name and we can't.

I think american names are prevented from having # for one simple reason.

30000000 Assasins named.

Naurto 1
Naruto 30000
Naruto 666

ANd so on...I mean we see it with just about every other game.

X Naruto X
Il Naruto Il
Xx Naruto Xx

Loool, where is Kakkasi Senseeeei?

It's possible to type in other alphabets if you enable it through windows. I can type in Russian in game because of it. Ыууб ш сфт вщ ше руку ещщ (if this spells some sort of russian swear word, my apologies).

I'm sure it works for asian characters and i'll bet there are japanese/chinese characters that look like arabic numerals.

naw, one of the naming rules is that you may only use English characters, i could type chinese into the name, but it wouldn't let me make the character =(

That rule doesn't apply to asian territory accounts. Those accounts in the asian territory are allowed to use the characters and I think they're allowed to use numbers. If not, those are actually characters that look like arabic numerals.

Kusandaa · Nov 19, 2007, 04:02 AM // 04:02

I had a guy using numbers in my f-list for a good 4 months, just to watch him having numbers haha. Apparently he was Korean PvPer and had found a way through the system or something.

You do not know how much I want to sunk in the skulls of people who name their assassins with anything pertaining to Naruto.

...but you cannot create characters with that characterset unless your account is linked to the appropriate continent.

If you want to create a guild with a numerica tag (Warriors of Sparta [300], etc) then it's a simple mattter of advertising in HA id1 for an asian fellow to help you out.
Char names, however, would not be possible.
