Keep Usernames case sensitive
Posted: 2021-11-22 22:10
Rather than strip all capitals from Usernames with strtolower() - it would be great to keep them case sensitive as intended and entered by the User.
This would not only cause less confusion for Users/Amins but would also enhance security and allow Users to use proper titles they way they were designed.
It also leads to potential issues like this: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=4530
Personally, I can't see any benefit in converting Usernames to lowercase? It can/does cause confusion and likely requires more code to add that function that it would to leave it out?
If there is a benefit, I would be interested to know what that may be?
Just my thoughts.....
