    Suggestion: Currently, the maximum number of characters you are able to input for /nick+ is 20 and the maximum amount of characters displayed is 20. I would suggest changing the maximum characters shown to 16 (as that is the maximum for usernames), but allowing up to 26 characters to be entered (for bold, colors, italics, etc.)

    Reason: I feel that for 16 character username user's (such as myself), we are rather limited by using /nick+ as we can only input 4 characters worth of codes. On the other hand, users with 6 characters can input up to 14 characters worth of codes. I think that by expanding the limit to 26 characters entered, more users will be interested in purchasing /nick+ and the current 16 character users (or other longer username players) will be a lot more satisfied with the purchase.

    Link To This Plugin: n/a - should be a rather simple modification to the current code

    A great idea! Even with a 10 character name I often run out of space for my Nicks. I think this would be a great way to improve Nick+

    Why not? It will only entice people to get nick+ :).

    I tried, and you can actually make your nickname 20 letters long :/

    As long as you can't show 26 letters in the nick, its a great idea. +1

    Hmm, interesting. I had never tried to input 20 characters, thanks for letting me know. I have edited the suggestion accordingly, suggesting it be returned to 16 as that is the username maximum. Thanks!

    I think if they can code something that will allow 16 letters in your nickname maximum, but allow an extra 10 digits of colorcode, it should work out.

    I don't see an issue the way it is. :p

    No, just kidding. I don't know what the system limits are. But anything that isn't a security concern and is able to be implented fairly easy I am for.

    No reason to deny this except for issues 'behind the scenes'.

    I just got /nick+. When i try to /nick, there are only 9 visible characters but with the code added its 21. You cant to 21 characters. This is very frustrating as my nickname wasnt even goin to be that elaborate. +1
