Right, bear with me as I'm not entirely sure how it is DONE, I just know that it is possible.
I am currently trying to determine whether it is a hack or just classic exploiting.
I have tried from the character create window, and it does NOT work...
However, my theory is that if you purchase a name change via Cartel Coins, and attempt to put the credit symbol (Alt+0162) or Cartel Coin symbol (Alt+0182) into your name... or even the block, I think it is Alt+0164 (somebody confirm this, not sure off the top of my head) then it should work, and they should appear legitimately in your character name.
Like I said, this is not confirmed, but I have SEEN it ingame, so it is POSSIBLE.
Curious as to whether anyone can get it working, I don't have the coins to try it, and quite like my accent and symbol-free names tbh.
Interesting to know if other symbols work, I have seen ? and credit symbol so far.
Also, they only seem to be after a space in the name... not sure if this is coincidence, or the only way to do it... screenshot inc.
Thanks!
