What are the invisable characters that impostors use?
I've noticed for a while now that some of the more clever yet even more irritating impersonators are using an invisible character in the name so that players can't tell which is real or false.
I have noticed that when they chat, there is a space between the name and the colon
Example:

 


Demo (BOB): Should I buy this game?

MAX-CR : I'm gay! <------------------( notice the space)

MAX-CR: who is this guy and why is he impersonating me?

MAX-CR : I'm the greatest, you all suck. I like to suck c***, your mom is a h***, F*** You...

 

[what he is really saying]-I like to impersonate people because I lack personal identity and am empowered by dragging other peoples persona through the mud. I have no friends, so I play this game and pretend to be other people so that sometimes people are nice to me. But my tendency to be a bad mouthed, arrogant , cheating, jerk always seems to get people mad at me. So then I impersonate someone else until everyone gets mad at me again. Etc...

 

MAX-CR: impersonator dude go away and stop camping, diving and bming?

Demo (BOB): geez maybe I wont be buying this game?

 

Anyhow you've all seen it before.
When I am not the one being impersonated I want to put them on ignore. But I cant because of the invisible character. I tried % as well as many others, but no go.

Try space. Ask 56k for the /I source code and email it to me.

It's easy Max, simply press: cntrl + I, and press it continuously till you reach the name of the fake and press enter once agaqin, it's that simple.

Also, I believe I know how they do this, I asked one day the guy who has no name whatsoever, and as best as I could make out what he said, it has something to do with opening the file "PlayersPreffs" in the TT directory, and manually changing your name and adding a character the game does not recognize, though I can't remember which character that was 8o

I know who it is, but if I tell you guys he'll just deny it.
But he's impostered me before and I've noticed the little space thingy.
Evil Twin knows how to make names like this " evil twin" so maybe you can ask him how to get those invisible things

@cadc, the only caracters I know of that TT cant recognize are:
.
%
(<-----spaces at the beginning of name)
`

@MAX
To ignore someone using the inviso character
Just hold ctrl and hit "I" repeatedly until the name u want pops up
then release to impliment

I have deleted the info on certain things in this thread. We don't need to teach people how to do these things. So please don't post how to do it again, send it via email thanks. B)
