"Name can not start or end with spaces". What?
« on: November 09, 2012, 09:50:35 pm »
So I was making a new char named patch when all ze sudden I click "OK" and it says to me "Name can not start or end with spaces". What in the world?

Ah it just means you had a space in it. Like when you finished the character, you may have pressed space. You have to redo your character, sorry for the inconvenience! Write down your color codes and stuff, so you don't forget them, and make sure you aren't hitting the space during the name writing.

I didn't once, I just put Patch and it was like nuuu you may not use that name! So I tried Smosh, and it didn't work, so then I tried Applepie and it still didn't work...

Aye, once you type in the name, do not press anything. Try typing it then submitting the char right away. If it works, then edit the char again, and get all the colors back.

I usually delete the name and then hit the right arrow key a few times before pressing Back Space, that should delete the space.

If that doesn't work i would redo my character ;)
Will be inactive due to work and exams.

Whenever this happens I go the the beginning of the name, and click Backspace, the I click the end of the name and hit "Delete" a couple times. That usually fixes it. There is no need to redo your character.
