Hallo, ich habe eine kleine Frage zu elitepvp, aber ich habe die Antwort nirgends gefunden. Vor 1 Monat wollte ich meinen Namen mit einem japanischen Namen (mit japanischen Buchstaben) ändern, aber ich konnte nicht, also habe ich einen normalen Namen verwendet.
Die Frage ist: ist es möglich, einen Namen mit japanischen Buchstaben zu bekommen oder nicht?
Wenn ja, kann mir jemand erklären, wie ich vorgehen muss?
Vielen Dank im Voraus

It was possible to use these characters/symbols some time ago, but we changed the settings and now its no longer possible. The support also won't change it for you.
One of the main reasons why we disabled it: It was often used for characters/symbols that looks very similiar to another one and has been used to fake an username to scam users believing they are trading with someone else.
Just an example:
lordsill (without any of those special characters)
lоrdsill (the о is just a special character (cyrillic small letter o instead of latin small letter o), but looks very similar to the original non-special version of my name)
[You can even use comparing tools to compare the 2 versions if you don't believe me and they will show you, that the o is different, be sure to copy&paste them for that]

tl;dr
It was possible, but it is no longer possible.
