In my opinion I don't think this should be a thing. It would make things like mentions much harder.
Extra characters maybe, but definitely not spaces. Agree with TBH 100%. Spaces also makes it very hard for a bot to parse out commands aimed at a particular user.
More characters as in character count - no problem with that, but having a long usernames makes it
a) Harder to remember b) Makes it too fancy (and standing out among the others) c) There would be problems with some names being too long and thus filling up most of the row - which does not look great at all
You can change checking username validity (and thus removing any limits) in https://github.com/musiqpad/mqp-server/blob/master/socketserver/database_util.js#L13 but, of course, on your own responsibility
That being said, we will most likely be keeping the 20 alphanum with _ and - characters limit
Okey
Maybe allowing users to have more characters to use in their username? Such as a space for example?
