| I think spaces and underscores should be allowed in names. |

> Spaces = Impersonations
If you're stupid enough to believe an impersonation then you deserve whatever happens to you. Just as simply as click the link to their profile and prove indefinitely whether they're the real thing. The ONLY time it'd get tricky is if they somehow go every ROBLOX and player badge that the real user had in the exact same order, obtained the exact places they had by some means, and had the same items as well, among other things. I assure you, though, that this would be fundamentally impossible.

She dletsky = Impersonartor
Shedletsky = Real deal
In game you could easily mistake the space as a graphical error or just not see it at all. Or you could have...
Shedletsky
...with a space in front. |

| ok let me clear this up, the reason spaces and underscores aren't allowed in names is because it would interfere with some of the website encoding,so instead of changing the entire website system, you're not allowed to have certain characters in your name. |

1. You don't know how the "website encoding" works. 2. They allowed spaces before and that turned out just fine.

1.that is true, yes, but i have expiermented with websties similar to this, and they dont allow paces for that reason.
2.also true, but they allowed spaces before a specific update, in which they most likely modified the webstie a tiny bit, therefore having to remove spaces and underscores from names.
im not stating facts, im stating my theory on why they dont allow spaces based on previous knowledge and expierences.
P.S @Cobalt i like your siggy |

Not really. I've been here long enough to know that the chances of someone actually knowing networking/HTML/et cetera when they say they do are extremely poor. If you know about the website's encoding the you should have a problem proving it to me. I don't care what you do, just do something. But then again, you're not the one that I said didn't know about how this site was built, so it really shouldn't matter to you.

For any string value in any programming language I've seen, simply putting it in quotes solves any problems related to spaces. This works in QBASIC, Lua, VisualBasic, C, C++, et cetera. I'm certain that this problem could easily be avoided by doing something akin to it even if HTML didn't have such flexibility. And I'd be truly surprised if HTML5 didn't.

I don't support, ask Stealth Pilot about it. Think of ALL the people that joined a few months ago, bought BC, and are extremely gulliable. LOOK AT THE BACK OF YOUR FOREHEAD! See? PRESS F13! More stuff. Do you think a random person, that just joined is going to see the difference: builderman builderman In a game, that's about impossible to tell apart.

As long as some rules apply to this, I might support. No spaces in the beginning or end. No more than 1 or 2 spaces. I say 1. Space must be seperating two characters that aren't spaces. 25% Support. |

Used to be spaces, bu I think they was removed for the same reason as meshes; being nearly impossible to moderate.

Why dont they make it so if there's an empty space after their name then they delete it Example: builderman(space) goes to builderman and then roblox says the name is already taken |

But It should be where you can only put them in between a group of letters
Example: mega man
But they wouldent allow this
Telamon(space here) If that would be the case it would be a not so big but okay addition |

| Alrighty then, I'll improve on the suggestion. Space and underscores would only be allowed in between letters. |

People wouldn't even put spaces in their names, they'd put it before or after their name Like Shedletsky (The real deal) Shedletsky (Fake) Shedletsky (Fake) Hard to tell who's who really :/ Plus people can be guilable enough to fall for most things, and some can be lazy not to actually check. |
