I'm having a problem with my very long username O_o o_O It's so long, that it goes right on top of my armatar, bugging it and making it rather bit annoying... I think this is a minor bug which can easily be fixed quite fast, please read my topic and take notice of this bug, would be great if you guys could fix it.

Yeah, it looks really ugly when usernames overlap armatars.
And if you make your location too long it sometimes overlaps your about on your profile.

It's not the sites fault you chose a long username. Deal with, make an alt, or leave, those are pretty much your options. AG doesn't do custom fixes like you need.

Well you got to remember, people sometimes don't know what the consequence of their actions might be. So it's technically no ones fault.
that it goes right on top of my armatar
Really? Somethings up with your internet then, because I see the username is below your avatar.

That might be bad for users who have a short name. A big wide gap after their username.

how the hell was I supposed to know that my huge name is going to overlap my armatar, and extending the box a little bit will not affect people with short usernames at all...

Your browser is messed up, because your armatar is fine.

Just what I was thinking, would suck for me :P

Also, maybe it could downsize the text for longer names and upsize for shorter ones to fill it out or make the name fit in the control panel thing better.

I have seen it on a few sites.

I don't think you are whining, you are suggesting something, and people shot it down because they don't need it.

Honestly, get used to it, it's the internet. People are jerky idiots who think they are smart for thinking everything sucks.

I see it right next, and it stops a few centimeters before your About. Maybe it is your internet, or the way your browser builds and shows the HTML coding (Some browsers show sites slightly differently. I see it often in Safari).

That's very common in the Forums. I've been heavily criticized for the stuff I've written here, and felt like an idiot, or badly insulted.

If it really disturbs you that you're username is so long, make a new account. And make it the initials of the name, then write your full name in your About. You might have to restart on points, but hey, if you're a good person, you wouldn't care.

I just called him Cheese, and he was fine with it.

You can always make your name as long as this though, but it's not the official account name. Just imagine your name, with underscores in between...yeah...
