Just asking why we can't use these symbols in our game names to play sa-mp.
"!@#$%^&*()_+©"

It has been this way since 0.2, nothing has really changed recently.
If I remember correctly they were removed due to crashing on mostly windows environment. They were blocked to prevent the server from trying to write certain files with those characters.
