PM: Can we have it so the usernames are case-sensitive?
Me: uhh, sure I guess.. But thats like really pointless and adds no real usefulness.. In fact makes the whole logging in thing a tad more complicated for no reason..
PM: Well this one other product we have uses "Admin" for the login versus yours that used "admin" so it needs to be implemented.
(note that mine accepted "Admin" anyways...) *implemented it*
PM: So there's a problem with the username sort, it sorts by capitals then lowercase.. eg:
alpha
beta
Alpha
Me: Yeah, you asked for case-sensitive usernames..
PM: Well can you fix it?
Me: I could create a second field within the user data that is the username in all lowercase and sort by that. But that negates like all of the whole case-sensitive usernames thing.. OR I could drop all this actually important work I'm doing and do a whole bunch of work on a custom sort for this useless fucking feature you wanted me to put in..
*it's been 2 weeks and still no reply...*
