Actually.... first came "Mr. Parcelan" followed by "Mr. Delid" which then became "Mr. Delidgamond" which was followed by "Sir Delidgamond" THEN came "Lord Tier."

So, in actuality, Parcelan started your little trend, Captain Canada.

No, that just counts as being stupid.

On a side note, what the hell is it with everyone? Lord of this? Master of that? Supreme Ubor Commander In Chief of the other thing?

Does everyone have a minority complex and wants to rule or what? Changing display names is fine and dandy but what the hell is wrong with you people?

Ok, you're excused because you actually make a funny king.

The rest of you folks who decided that being a ruler, sir, lord, king, or picked one of those ego-inflating titles; I repeat: what the FUCK is wrong with you all?

No offense on having a different name or having something different, but this whole name changing thing just looks like one great big clusterfuck of randomly chosen names only to try and out-rank someone else, and for what? No purpose except flexing of the ego.

Feh.

Ever consider not taking the advice of others at face value? There's a reason spaces are either collapsed or otherwise stripped out, to prevent STUPID PEOPLE from fucking up the layout by assigning themselves a displayed name the size of fuckin' China.

It hasn't got jack to do with the code being used; there's like, this thing about having common sense and maybe just thinking to yourself "gee, maybe this really long display name isn't a good idea"?

Or maybe spark a thought by rubbing 2 braincells together and going "gee, suppose i put these non-breakable characters in my name, maybe it'll fuck up"?

But no.

Err.. um.. nice.. new.. name there

Anyway, supposed you have a line of text like this "ono! i see stupid people" - when IE wraps it, it "breaks" the sentence on the space, since a space is a breakable character.

A non-breakable character is a character where you can't break a sentence, such as a regular letter - or alt-160.

So putting non-breakable chars in a really LONG name is like, dum.

Yep, MadCat knows EXACTLY what I did! He knows that I did it on purpose just to fuck up the board formatting cause I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE COOL.

Read this thread, it was more than one person that told delid that normal spaces didn't work. I have even had long names before that wrapped, I had no reason to believe that using an alt-code space wouldn't wordwrap. BIG DEAL. It's fixed, lighten up, get over it.

[Edit: Oh, by the way, it was alt-0160, not alt-160. It's also spelled 'dumb' not 'dum'. YOU MUST BE STUPID! TOO!]

Fine, I'm already lightened up on the spaces deal.

Leaves me with my question; what the fuck is wrong with y'all, going for them mile long titles that proclaim to be either ruler of something, master of something, or grand supreme poobah of something?

Minority complex? Urge for world domination? Attention whoring?
