[10-31 07:22][Chat]Rmp: 'object' is a valid player name. lol.
[10-31 07:22][Chat]Rmp: I wonder if that doesn't break a command or a room function somewhere.
[10-31 10:54][Chat]Icewolfz: the name object would not break anything
[10-31 10:54][Chat]Icewolfz: the only name i know that would break anything is new
[10-31 10:55][Chat]Icewolfz: most of hte other disallowed nmes are curse words or to prevent confusion
[10-31 11:06][Chat]Rmp: I assume that's in the blocked list
[10-31 11:06][Chat]Icewolfz: nope
[10-31 11:06][Chat]Rmp: lol
[10-31 11:06][Chat]Icewolfz: most name are not blocked unless thy are known to be an issue
[10-31 11:07][Chat]Icewolfz: the worse case object causes is any thing with the id of object to require adding teh # syntax
[10-31 11:07][Chat]Rmp: but since you know 'new' to be an issue, I'd proactively ban it now, since you told us :)
[10-31 11:07][Chat]Icewolfz: and object is not used as a genric id as well
[10-31 11:07][Chat]Icewolfz: new is only bad due ot the creation process
[10-31 11:07][Chat]Icewolfz: object doenst break anything
[10-31 11:08][Chat]Icewolfz: there are very few names that break stuff
[10-31 11:08][Chat]Icewolfz: most are banned more to prevent abuse/confusion
[10-31 11:09][Chat]Rmp: hmm wonder if a player called sudo could be abused with finger to shell out to prompt. lol
[10-31 11:09][Chat]Icewolfz: wont we do not have any shell outs
[10-31 11:09][Chat]Icewolfz: so nothing directly executes anyting on shell
[10-31 11:09][Chat]Rmp: right, but I'm thinking of possible methods to abuse
