i understand wanting to limit it, but three was a rogue that was nasty in a group and i remmber the name started with ST but not the exact spelling of the rest. having issues finding said rogue. would be great if i could search on st* , with restrictions of rogue and proudmoore

I might be able to enable wildcards if you restrict to server and faction. Previously wildcard searches were really taxing on the database.

We're up to nearly 32 million characters.... that's a lot, hehe

32... o_o

I'm assuming that number doesn't include the toons that haven't been seen by the database in over a month, right?

That's a few characters!

That is every character ever seen or entered into the DB
