Is putting strange symbols in your name possible?

I mean symbols like: Ψ Â° â€ Ж ≋ ≜ ≌ ≡ ≣ ⊚ ⊙ ⊞ ⋙ ⋘ ┌ ╦ ╤ - ◇ ≡ ≤ ≥ ≠ ≡ ⊰ Â§

If it is, could you tell me...? PM or here...

Thanks in advance...

If you mean in soldat, I believe that was left out so people can't just put a ton of symbols in there as to not get kicked by an admin.

No, only standard character, nothing else. Standard characters over and over, if you don't see it on your keyboard you can't use it.

I thought support had been added for unicode characters? So it should be possible to put stuff in your name that isn't on the keyboard.

That's only for in-game chat. I don't know how many times it needs to be said. If you don't see it on the keyboard, it can't go in your name.

Special characters used to be allowed back in 1.2 (I think) but it was specifically taken out. You can only use the characters you see on the keyboard.
