the 2nd clan has 2 spaces in the name after "the" :P

Oh, thanks, good find. That explains it :)

But visually there is literally no difference or distinction, which is weird.


Here's a screenshot of two parallel lines with the same width in between:

It seems it doesn't account for double spacing (unless it's in the internal code).

Try opening each clan page in its own, separate tab and quickly keep on CTRL+Tab ing between the two windows while staring at the clan names. You won't notice any spacing differences, except one thing which is weird, the width of the 'L' in 'Imperial' slightly changing.

Wasn't expecting to see my own clan being discussed here...

This is worrying, I would not want anyone to be confused when looking for either of our clans :@

But yes, it does seem to be 2 spaces between 'the' and 'imperial', still I didn't think the system would allow names like this.

edit: I visited their clan chat as a guest, and yes it is 2 spaces after 'the'.

Looks like the website tidies up extra spaces. They are different for the links tho, which is what matters. Mod Maz

That's true, for the URL's as well the difference shows between the two at the end:

(%20 = space)

The %20 Imperial%20Legion

The %20%20 Imperial%20Legion


Luckily though their clan seems to be inactive/dead, so wouldn't really be confusing, especially by following the right links and typing in the correct (normal) name for guesting (no one will go ahead and type two spaces unless they're specifically going to their chat).
