buggy in that the mouse leaves trails when you see the "error logging in, invalid name" message... i"ll get a better word for word description of the message when loggin in with things like ! @ #.
EDIT: im aware how obscure this bug is and will probably not get fixed ;)

I think a better way of explaining this is:
When logging into wormNET with an invalid name (such as '333' or '!#@'), an error is displayed (as expected) with "Error logging in, invalid name", but your mouse leaves a trail behind it as it moves..
It doesn't affect stability or anything, i'd say it could go safe as never getting fixed :P

Hang on, so you get an error message when you try to log in using symbols you shouldn't be using? Do stop wasting everyone's time, franpa...

No, it's that the mouse leaves a trail whenever he gets an error message when he tries to log in using symbols. It's not supposed to leave a trail, apparently.

nor should it show the error message twice.

Right. Considering that you did this enough times to find that bug, I take it displaying the message only twice at a time isn't good enough!
