they wont ever run out of names...

every name can contain 13 chars max and minimum 3 chars. there are 37 different chars (26 letters, 10 numbers and the _ )

so the the amount of possible names = 37^13+37^12+37^11+37^10+37^9+37^8+37^7+37^6+37^5+37^4+37^3 = 250335035999861340251

correct me if im wrong

im not exactly sure how you would mathmaticaly factor this in buy you havent taken into account that you can use capitals and lowercase letters to increase the possible names

as i already replied to another post, the capital letters don't matter in char names. If i create a dude called "test", i can't create a dude called "TEST". It would simply say it's already in use.

We've already proved that it certainly isn't infinite.

I did read the other post...but my estimate guess thats its infinite is better then wasting the time to do the math.

That is different than what you said. You can't expect people to know exactly what you mean.
