Prohibit player names made up of spaces

Can the devs looking at prohibiting names like " " or " " or " ", i.e. players names that are not actually names but just a series of spaces? sometimes the odd "." is thrown in.

This is a trick as old as online multiplayer gaming itself, no player name will actually be visible to others and only the distance marker will appear. Players with no characters in their names can just look like a glitch/bug to others when all they see is the distance marker.

This is a cheap bullshit attempt for individuals to exploit, and puts others at an immediate disadvantage.

I think it'd be much easier, and make much more sense, to get rid of player name/distances altogether, on all servers.
