This is FAB. My only disappointment is that I still can't start the 1984 lineage, but that's cool. I'll think of something else xD I especially like the apostrophes being added.

Yes I am joking, partly. I'm very grateful for the extra characters, but I was still hoping for accent marks. I really want a creature named Günter. That's just me though.

True. The new rules are awesome, and everyone should be grateful for them. But it seems like alot of people wanted accent marks. Personally, I wouldn't mind them either. I usually name my creatures in Gaelic, so accent marks usually come up in the names. O.o

PS: To myself: Why do you keep posting n this thread?! You must seriously have a boring life...

this is just great! So, when can we rename some of our babies (I get dyslexic sometimes and miss out letters, or reverse the order). Besides, I have a cobalt wyvern male named Leia (if you could just change that to Leiax, I could live with that) oh mighty ruler of MagiStream! Your humble followers bow down and reverently chant your name like a mantra.

T is for the terrific site you made for us
R is for the really awesome art
I is for the throngs who idolize you
S is for the shops galore you gave us
T is for the trading features (best on the web)
A is for the artists you've brought us
N is for the new naming feature!


We Luff you! <3 <3 <3 <3

An update has been made to the naming restrictions. The former rules are this:
  • 16 character maximum length
  • letters and spaces only
The new rules are as follows:
  • 25 character maximum length
  • letters, spaces, hyphens, and apostrophes only
  • There may be no more than two hyphens or apostrophes in a name
This will allow people to name their creatures things like Conan O'Brien, abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxy, and other tremendously important names.
Cool! Thanks Tristan!
