Your name: [Lsrcr]CresP
Suggestion headline: @Player_name in main chat
Picture: Keep the picture in this
Spoiler: show
Importance of suggestion: 8/10 (Shows how much it would mean to server/players)
Why should it be accepted: So basicaly you have write @ and first letters of player name. For example I want tell something to Player_User in main chat and I am lazy to write full name. So I write: @Player and then in typing box appear Player_User. If for example there is Johnson and Johnny you have write: @Johnn and Johnny name will appear in typing box. It's basicaly same as /id user_name.

It's an interesting suggestion but say if you're trying to talk to player_user and you shorten it to player and there happens to be 3 people online with player at the beginning of there name, wouldn't your message go to anyone with the first word player?

In such cases, a message may pop up saying 'Multiple matches with this name' or something like that. Then you may extend it a bit to 'player_us' for example.

I don't find it necessary because you're lazy nor do I find it worth 8/10 tbh :sunglasses:

just say shortcuts like

"marvelofavengers" -> marvel
and he will know that hes meant.

or Absynth -> absy
JohnCarer -> John
Hitman_Contract -> hitman

no need to write the full name, since there aren't that many similar player names.

But wouldn't that defeat the prepose? It'd be better to just have to type the number of the player and talk to him that way. Like say if they're I'd 34 you can just type in player 34 i have a question. For an example. When I was in game and someone posted a number in main chat I'd check to see if that was my number and then ether answer the question or talk to the person if they were looking for a conversation.
