      @Wizard_Pope oh yeah they do that for everyone. It’s a safety feature called puny code.

      people were using weird chars to impersonate well known domains for phishing, so if you register a domain using unusual or mixed language characters it renders it as puny code to prevent spoofing.

        Yeah I know about the spoofing thing like using cyrilic letters and shit. I just thought hieroglyphs would resolve to actual hieroglyphs
