    I have found that u have to use the forward slash between words. No spaces or other characters worked.

    Seems to be a new bug.

    I wish they'd let people use punctuation and spaces on them :|.

    They did have punctuation a couple of days ago. Now it's glitched.

    I think it happened when they changed the faction names so you can't put "special characters" in it.. happened with titles too :O

    you also apparently can't use the number combination "64" in titles it will say invalid character.

    Stupid noob Devs don't have a ****ing clue.

    This will make 3 tickets I've submitted since the last update for their bugs, and they just blow me off saying it's a non-intended feature, or they'll look into working on it in the future. Which basically means, "we don't give a rats *** and you'll just have to live with it"?

    Ugh I hadn't noticed but I always use our slogan to post our faction forums website; this will really tick me off. Stupid game is always messing stuff up.

    read the patch notes for once!

    quote "Factions weren't meant to be able to use spaces and carats in their names. We've fixed this issue and you should no longer be able to use them in new faction names"

    end of issue

    and yet you people continue to play this game, even if the Devs consistently **** on your faces and bug the game, not giving a rats *** about you, the game, or its hundreds of glitches that they continuously introduce and never fix.

    stop playing the game, and they will notice people are dropping like flies because of incompetent Devs who know **** about game development and coding.

    well they have a point when they complain tho >.>
    i think there was another thread with complaints about slogans =/
    the slogan currently cannot even have spaces. The english language has spaces.
    pw INTERNATIONAL was intended for the english speaking audience. So saying that the slogan cannot accommodate the style of reading and writing for the audience it was meant for, is kinda BS if their saying that.


    Slogan style:

    Obama just died... Oh wait, I just read that online. I mean this literally. C'mon guys!!!!

    ...But seriously.

    Faction slogan
    Faction name

    Don't they just sound different when you pronounce them? The "slogan" is the little text-based box that you see when you press "r" and the faction roster comes up. The "name" of a faction is just that - the actual name of the faction your in.

    Example for the slow peeps:

    I'm in a faction called Radiance. That's the name. The faction slogan says "SIGN UP FOR TW THIS WEEKEND", etc.

    Is this making sense yet? Because your not the only person who thought faction name = faction slogan. Seem's to be a trend around these forums, that spreads like wildfire.

    Topic is about faction slogans.
    Your quote was about the patch note's stating "faction names".
    My quote was detailing how faction slogans differ from faction names.

    What are you not understanding?

    Coming from a person who is SO OBVIOUSLY NOT READING. I just about fell out of my chair laughing when I saw this.

    and to make this clear...
    The patch notes you quoted covers ... faction NAMES.

    This thread is talking about ... ... ... faction SLOGAN.

    Notice how the words in green are different?

    if you don't, you're dumber than you think star.

    Just an Update, they haven't touched my ticket on this. I've gotten multiple responses on my other 3 open tickets, but nothing on this one.

    They really must be clueless, because usually i have some half-assed answer telling me it's not broken by now.

    OK so I checked yesterday and my faction slogan still has all the appropriate spaces in it (sentence about visiting our forums). So presumably this only happens if I were to erase it and attempt to put in a new one?
