One letter usernames...

[The Don]

If you're looking for an explanation from me as to why the search function would be affected, you're asking the wrong guy!

Fair enough, So you were wrong to say "the rule isn't pointless, your thread is pointless" in your first post since you don't know why the rules in place yourself

The search problem isn't a problem. You can't search words or strings of letters under 3 letters but if you put the username in the username field then it'll find it.

There is literally no issue.

So Habbox don't want to do it because they said so? Go figure, my "copout answer" is actually the right answer. They do what they want.

I'd say the rule is there because Habbox said so now. I said the thread is pointless because it's really a non-issue, in that I think "who actually cares having a 1 or 2 letter username on the forum", other than yourself of course.

Well considering other people have posted in this thread as well saying they want a shorter username i'm clearly not the only person that has interest in it. But hey-ho, Habbox says so :Content: Also, Habbox 'saying so' does not make the rule any less pointless

Why would I know the reason it's there I didn't make the forum, I just find it hilarious that your reasoning is totally against what you were trying to say in the last feedback thread about changing rules

Standard search doesn't support less than 3 characters (unless that changed since I last checked)

I believe they don't use the default search and use Sphinx Search and it seems to work fine in this.

So basically you're just arguing in here to prove a point on a totally unrelated matter. Sweet. Pretty ironic that you called me out for stating opinion as fact in another thread whilst you're doing more or less the same in this thread by acting knowledgeable about the forum search functions to prove a point about me being hypocritical, thus being hypocritical yourself. We've come full circle.

I didn't state an opinion as fact, there's no need to lie. I said that you'd been told why the rule was in place, which is correct - whether the reasons given hold up to scrutiny that has happened since my post has no bearing on that. And it's not an unrelated matter, it's the matter of changing rules

*more or less the same*. I would suggest unintelligibly reiterating some vague reasoning is comparable to stating an opinion with conviction. I would also argue that the post your threads have no affect on users, whereas username character limits do.

It wasn't an unintelligible post, I didn't reiterate their reasoning I simply stated what ones had been given, and there were no opinions of any kind present. Try again but this time without lying.

"It's just a number!!!!"
"It's just a name!!!!"

By reiterating the reasons given you are insinuating you have knowledge on the subject. Most people (excluding dragga) don't reiterate things they have no knowledge on.

"It's just a number!!!!"
"It's just a name!!!!"

Are you genuinely saying post count other people accumulate from threads you're equally entitled to post in is somehow comparable to your own accounts username?
