Allow admins to set character length for usernames

Post by ddd »

It'd be great if we could set the character max length for usernames, or at least up it to a higher number. We're receiving complaints about the hard coded limit of 12, since it's bothersome to users to think of a username smaller than that, and it's uncommon in applications to have such a low limit.

12 was chosen because it matched the PokerStars limit at the time. Then the name plate graphic was sized around that so most names of 12 or fewer characters would fit at the normal font size.
