Well, to the point. There isn't an problem unless you think findplayer + 13 (+2 for bracets) is to hard to write.

I'm just annoyed with all of those who moans about the Graal###### accounts, Yes, I don't like it myself, but it's good for the new players. They can play as a guest/observer, pay for an account, nad keep the items they made on the guest/observer account! And, you can say making your systems working with community and account names can be some extra training.



Actually, I think findPlayerByCommunityName() rather looks for the community names first. Would make no sense otherwise, and old accounts have their account as the community name.
Also, just replacing findPlayer() with findPlayerByCommunityName() can cause soooooo many problems. It depends where its used, seriously. If you only change it in one script, and a string with an account inside is used somewhere else and its not changed there yet...kapoof, broken stuff, enjoy.
