Someone directed me on how to make a lowercase name, you create e.g. "Ttest", and move the cursor the capital T, and remove it, and now it'll be "test", to be submitted.
Here is a name approval request for lowercase with latest SVN:
Code:

So I added this patch:

And here's what it says, when I try to register 'test' again.

my char logs in with a capitalized name.
I whipped this out VERY FAST, may have some logical errors or some overlook since I'll admit - I don't understand the character creation process.. But, instead of taking the time of figuring out every possibility, it seems to work, i'll submit, we can go from there.
