You could set it up to do that.

Hi there, I was wondering if you could help me out, Brad
I want to know what needs be done to have the following things:

All symbols except "?", "^", "*" and "_" restricted. And all of the symbols allowed, should be allowed to use no more than once. So when a player changes his name into a nickname that contains "<" for example, he gets kicked and gets this feedback: "That symbol is not allowed! Please change your nick."

And if "Name?" changes his name into "Name??" he would get kicked and receive the following feedback: "You are not allowed to use that symbol more than once!"

I hope I've spoken clearly. I need only several examples of what to put in restrictnames.ini
Hence I can't figure it out on my own, my head is just too crowded, sorry for asking guidance like this, I guess I will have to wait for your reply whenever you have time on getting back to me

Thanks!

It'd be easiest to use two separate expressions to do the two things you want.

In the first regex, allow letters, digits, and whitespace plus the allowable symbols. A name with any other characters should fail this regex. I'm not sure if the following would work, but it's what I'd start with:

^[\w\s\?\^\*_]+$

In the second regex, look for the allowed symbols being used more than once and fail the regex when that happens. This is a bit harder and not something I'm ready to look into this morning. I'll try to come back to this later (probably not today).

Thank you for your time. Doesn't matter if you're not in the mood, whenever's right for you is ok by me as long as I still get the answer in the long run.

What I don't really understand, which defines the punishment?
And shouldn't this

^[\w\s\?\^\*_]+$

Be this ?

^[\w\s\?\^\*\_]+$

That is, if I understood how exactly it works
If you could define everything, It would be much easier for me.
Thanks again!

The expression I gave is correct. The underscore is not a reserved character and so it doesn't need to be escaped like the other characters.

You can review http://www.regular-expressions.info/ for a lot more information.

I added the line.
I entered the server with a name like Asdiaofa*
And it banned me via STEAMID :/

This is how restrictnames.ini looks like, since I didn't need the others I only left:

^(\(\d\))?player$ "'player' not allowed" 0 "Name was Prohibited"
[`~] "console key not allowed" 0 "Name had Console Key"
^.{1,2}$ "name length must be 3-26 characters" 0 "Name was too Short"
^.{27,}$ "name length must be 3-26 characters" 0 "Name was too Long"
^[\w\s\?\^\*_]+$

And when I tried to enter with the name Lateseptember, it kicked me saying I have an inappropriate name.

Furthermore,

L 05/02/2009 - 17:59:52: Gu3rIlA was kicked because "gu3rila" matched regex #5, "^[\w\s\?\^\*_]+$" ().
L 05/02/2009 - 17:59:55: Lateseptember was kicked because "lateseptember" matched regex #5, "^[\w\s\?\^\*_]+$" ().
L 05/02/2009 - 18:13:56: God? was kicked because "god?" matched regex #5, "^[\w\s\?\^\*_]+$" ().
L 05/02/2009 - 18:14:13: God? was kicked because "god?" matched regex #5, "^[\w\s\?\^\*_]+$" ().

Do you have a question?
