Minecraft Username: D0rc
Brief Description: It seems that when I'm online, typing "/tell ", just like that with two spaces, will go into private chat with me. This causes a lot of people to accidentally type /tell [insert username/text here] and message me on accident, which becomes quite annoying after a while. :p
Instructions: Type "/tell " when I'm online, it will go into a private chat with me. Works with /msg too. According to Delitad, typing it when I'm not online doesn't private chat anyone.
How many times did you recreate this bug?: 3 out of 3 times.
Result: Private chatting with me.
Expected Result: Not private chatting anyone.
Evidence:
Additional Information: I have been getting random PM's from random users all day, and it's getting kind of annoying. I hope this is something that can be fixed. :p (Not to mention whatever kind of other internal problems there could be when my username is online - who knows what could be wrong there.)
Edit: It seems that the forum doesn't allow me to show two spaces together >.> Just remember that the problem is doing it with two spaces, not one.

I am fairly sure i know why. I am thinking that when you type two spaces it guesses in alphabetical order, so that whenever camcliff or other a-c names are not it auto pmes you. Not 100% sure though. If this is the case, i would assume there is a way to block they guess feature, but at the same time, i doubt it will be blocked due to its convienence. However, i am not 100% sure asi said.
Dwite is also an early alphabet name... theory support! :p -

Yes it has. It happens to me about once or twice a week mostly early in the morning when there are not many users online. Haha im not sure if i accidentally do it but i don't think so haha.
-
Do me a favor then :p next time you AND camcliff or an earlier name are online, try it and post results :p
-
You are a noob, bro... You have a 0. A user who starts with "da" or any "d-another letter" will not get messaged, because 0 comes before the alphabet. >_>

I thought about this before posting, I didn't get anything mixed up - I know numbers come first, but the first letter of my name isn't a number - therefore, it shouldn't go to me if it should go alphabetically. We went over this already. :| -
But no really - this is a common thing to accidentally do. :p I get a PM less than every half an hour on the on peak. It doesn't seem like much, but it still would be a pain to have someone accidentally PM me if they happen to be saying certain things. -
