O.P. Multiline nickname, anyone find a fix =)?
Well, self explanatory, I'm interested as to whether an alternative/fix was found for multiline nicknames =)

Edit: Well I believe i've found one, it's just that it bolds all text after it, which tbh, is annoying.

use msgplus, and type:
/nick <line 1 of name> <shift + return> <line 2 of name>

etc.

This works temporarily: after signing out and signing in again, your name will be one line again.

I am aware of that way but I believe I have found an alternative, seeing as that character has been "nullified".

Here's a screeny, as you can see, the nickname is multi-lined. This is retained after signing out and then back in. However the font is changed and somewhat bolder than your actual nickname.

Also, your nickname looks like crap to your contacts, but it's an alternative. Can't have everything now can we =)?

wow, the change in colour and font sure does look ugleh :P

I also like how my name magically turns into wingdings, where the email is =).

I'll think of a way to explain it or just keep it to myself..hmm..nah that'd be evil..hmm ;)
