Can non-ASCII Characters Be Recognized On Usernames?

<< < (5/5)

A hash is a number, just a different base.

While you could go with 0001, 002 etc, there's a likelyhood of collisions. Albeit very very small, if several sign up at once the issue may arise. However a hash derived from a users email once verified won't form any chance of a collision.

As long as you can get the website to be able to handle (for example) Cyrillic etc in the URL then that's all that really needs to be done. I imagine even with urlencoding a player would be able to just type the Cyrillic in and (assuming he's using a browser that isn't piss-horrible) it would "just work" (the browser would convert the пример.испытание into the proper %XX bits, whatever they may be)

EclipseCookie:
But still there are people (like me), that like to use fancy letters, so it would be fine if these names can be accessed too. My name contains 1 normal letter, 2 greek ones, 1 polish and 1 turkish one. My Audiosurf username has no ◆ in it.

S.:


Don't see how you can live with that. My name includes a dot and even that is already pretty frustrating to work with.
