(?i)\W*(brain damage)\W*

Could anyone explain me why this string does not work?
It should detect anyone with any type of case letter with this part inside nickname.

You should provide examples (that you have actually tried) of what you expect should result in a match.

Why do you have parentheses around "brain damage"? Based on the very limited information provided, it doesn't seem like you would need those (but shouldn't prevent it from working).

How do I increase the max length of name?

What do you mean? IIRC, the game engine has a hard coded name length limit that cannot be exceeded. The only name length parameter related to this plugin is for the names being loaded from the configuration file for rename punishment. This limit is currently 28 but can be increased to 32 (IIRC), change this value on line 113 and recompile.

Thanks for your response.

To confirm, you're referring to this line;
#define MAX_NAME_LEN 28
to
#define MAX_NAME_LEN 32

why would my compiled version be so much smaller than the amxx file available in this thread?
5 KB vs 14 KB?

I think the forum compiler may include the unusable 64-bit version of the compiled code. I'm quit sure I remember that they removed that at some point in updates to AMX Mod X. I'm not super familiar with the compiler source code so I can't confirm myself.

Tell me how to fill out the form in restrictnames.ini so that Russian letters are prohibited
Let's say a player with the nickname "Newbie" enters and his nickname changes to "Default_HuK"
(?i)^Newbie$ "name 'Newbie' cTaHDaPTHoe" 0 "Default_HuK"
And if a player comes in with Russian symbols, with a Russian nickname, for example, Александр, then what should the line look like?
If I do this ((? I) ^ Александр $ "name 'Александр' cTaHDaPTHoe" 0 "Default_HuK"), then nothing happens.
Write a ready-made line for restrictnames.ini that blocks all Russian characters
Thank you.

Your file will run miles long. There is code available to handle it. No need to waste hours adding every non-UTF8 in existence to a file.
