How big is the letter limit on a character's name? I'm going to be so mad if it's 12. This screenname that I got here has got to be one of the best in the world and I hate having to shorten it down to BigKev just because I can't put in at least one extra letter.

I heard it's determined by name width, not number of characters *shrugs*

There are probably tens of thousands of BigKev's out there, but there's only one BigKevSexyMan.

Thanks that brings a lot of relief, but.....another problem just popped in my head. Are they gonna allow the 'sexy' part of my name?

It should fit, actually, but it'll be close. Names are based on Width.

It is based on width, and can get pretty long.

One of my chromehounds squadmates was on the beta as "Lyonel Farenheights"... pretty long.

The question is are you sure you want to run around as Bigkevsexyman , in universe with so many homeo refrenences in it? ... ;d

In PSO i named one of my s-rank twins GKB , and my friend asked me "whats that stand for? Ghey king's bar?" it stood for gold king bar tho http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

No worries multiple people can have the same name in PSU , since you get a unique ID #.

Really? Interesting..well we'll see what happens then huh http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif aside from that I can use this board name as well..and also my former FFXI name..but thats really something new..I guess it offers more of a flexible edge for the PSU community...lets just hope we don't see two Sephirothz fighting over who made which name first.
