This is a bug since the illegal character does not fault the entire nick. Im thinking this bug is related to how the ~ is used in the code...Additional InformationTesting with a normal illegal character: NICK :&Zell 432 Zell &Zell :Erroneous Nickname: Illegal characters Testing with the ~ character: NICK :~Zell 432 Zell :Erroneous Nickname: Illegal characters Testing with the ~ in the middle: NICK :Ze~ll <-:Zell![censored]@[censored] NICK :ZeTagsNo tags attached.3rd party modulesAttached Files Relationships Relationships Notes (0007662) AngryWolf (reporter) 2004-09-16 04:44 The theory is: how many characters can we accept from the given nickname starting from the first character? If 0, deny the nick, otherwise truncate the nickname. I don't think that should be a bug.

Only when it's the first character that is illegal it gets completely denied since we can't do anything with it. I'm personally not too keen on always denying the whole NICK in case of an invalid character somewhere (except 1st pos.), I noticed some servers doing this but I find it kinda inconsisitent.. for example, other 'changes' are still silently done, like '/nick aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabbbbbbbbbbbbcccccccc' still gets you nick 'aaaaaaaaaaaa' etc. I think our current behavior is just fine. (0007664) Zell (reporter) 2004-09-16 20:45 Agreed. Yet do you notice how the Invalid nickname is not reported back to you if the '~' is the first cha
