Describe changes

What's your Minecraft Username?: kamxoxo
What's the title of your suggestion?: Describe changes

What's your suggestion?:
When doing /me describes (person) theres often the issue with the fact that there are symbols above the letters due to the native language of the character, when describing especially for things like KPD, these little letters can mean alot and may often cause confusion or overall annoyance.
Letters like: é, í, á and so forth.

My suggestion is that like similar to /findname where you do the command and it shows a list of IGN's, is that we have the same thing where it's /describe and then it provides all RPNames that are online at the time on that character.

How will this benefit the server and community?:
Allows ease of use and also means that less time is used trying to find RPNames and we can instead just type out a simple command to do it for us.

I think that this is a good idea, since i too when searching people's ign for things such as permissions, example, someone knocked my character out and like I didn't know their ign but their name had symbols such as Ř smth and it over complicates thing.

I would go a step further with this suggestion and make the /findname command ignore the special characters, so it's way easier to find a person. The current system relies on exact matching of the name, and while this is beneficial, it can also be frustrating to search for people whose first or second letter of their name includes a special character. You'd have to scroll through almost the whole online server.

When you do /findname and search for names with special characters, for example, Chōei (Lastname), you are not able to search "Choei" and find the match. Instead, what you have to do is find the special character, in this case "ō", to find the person, or, on the other hand, search every single person whose name starts with "Ch", which could be a lot. What I said in my answer was that the OP could go a step further and also remove the requirement for the name to be exact, so instead of /describe | /findname Chōei (Lastname), you can type /describe | /findname Choei, and the server will find the name.

Press up arrow to send the list back to the bottom. These special characters automatically filter down to the bottom of the list. I hope this helps.

Thank you for your suggestion!

- You can use /it for this. Making specific commands for every specific scenario over complicates things and makes the server less user-friendly.​
