Prevention of duplicate character and account names

Today I tweaked the account and character creation. The database now refuses duplicate names using an unique index. The server checks this and also does some other plausibility checks (password complexity, name length, no funny characters in the name) and sends either a negative or a positive response to the client. The client reacts to these by either displaying an error or navigating to the next screen.

I also added a placeholder privacy policy and terms of use to the registration.
