New classes with name length super short

Hi, I'm not sure if I'm the only one who finds this really off putting...
But the name length for the new characters is really short... and it's harder to name characters.

Will there be a fix to this, please? I wish it would have the same length as other classes

    What are you typing in, cyrillic? There's no problem with the name length.

    The shorter it is the better. It will disallow more invalid names made of insults to be typed in. At least that what I think.

    I believe the new classes have an old restrictions on names. Quote me if I'm wrong however.

    On one other note you don't want it too long or your be unable to get mail from other players.

    Thanks.

    A note on the mail thing, I believe they fixed this recently so you can mail players with up to 14 characters in their name. Of course, there is a chance this could break again in the future.

    My point is that it's shorter than the older classes.
    People can type profanity with shorter letters. But ever since they updated, I can't write the same old name.
    I deleted because they updated the character creation.
    It deserves a fix.

    They will write profanity anyway that is true but it will be less measured the way it is. If you are trying to start character with trade-marked character name you used to play anywhere else then you better try to create new one and pronounce it as nickname to your original name.

    Still, I can't find a reason why I can type 14 characters with a Venomancer, but with Edgerunner and Technician is cut to half.
    This seems like they didn't change from the original chinese version. Where 7 characters is totally fine lol
