A standard Snitz install allots for 75 characters for a username.
What's a good average length to use that isn't as long as 75 characters?
Thanks all,

Etymon

That gives me an average of 37 (not including the tongue into the equation).<

Wow, 75 characters sure would throw the tables out of kilter. Isn't that longer than the allowed topic title?<

Longest name I've seen is Classic's around 20 after 25 the side bar become intolerable to me. Register names of varying length and see what's intolerable.<

You'll have to change a few fields in different tables in the database - find all the M_NAME fields, go into design view & change lengths to whatever you want. May also have to modify a few asp pages (not sure if any other than register or inc_profile would specify a field length) if you modify this value.<

I had the same question a little while ago. It was a very easy fix.

Whew, second poster here is what I think is my longest username. Look how far it pushes all the username/avatar cells.
Methinks I may have to fix this. dead<

75? I thought standard snitz username was set at a max of 25 characters?<

Nope, Davio, 75 is correct. Can you imagine a user name with 75 characters, though? section removed by Huwr. DO NOT TAKE THE PISS OUT OF PEOPLES NAMES JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THEM, IT IS RACIST.<
