I have a real problem with this. The majority of people who have invalid character in their names I don't mind - if someone wants to run around as Scãbbers, I don't care. But more and more recently I am seeing people using character names with invalid characters as a way to get around the reporting system.
Tonight, for example, my fiance was invited to a chat channel with a name I won't repeat here - only to say that the channel name was comprised of a racial slur against African Americans and a word for male genitalia. When you're invited to a chat channel, the name of the person who invited you is not shift-clickable for easy reporting. The character's name contained an invalid character, and so he was unable to send in a report.
Please, either make it so that you can't make names with invalid characters, or make it so that every time someone contacts you, whether it's a whisper, public channel, private channel invite, group invite, or guild invite, make it so that we can shift-click the person's name to report them!
