    There was a good point about not having to go all the way over to P if you hit $, and using just * solves that, to me *p works if you want to take the time to do it, cause its close enough to *... I think both could be used and you should use either based on your preference

    Φ or φ
    Phi. The Greek letter for p.

    Well, theres always a chance of making a typo, just gotta check your typing first, someone can always hit ; instead of p

    It was a thought.
    EDIT: How hard would it be to just display that or any other symbol when the $ key is hit?

    That could be easily fixed with something like additionally having to press Ctrl in order to display an actual dollar sign.

    That's exactly what I was thinking. Only you said it in a way that made more sense.

    IZ GUD IDEAR.
     
  8. I'm pretty sure that Ф is pronounced as F...
    П or π (Pi) is Greek for P:geek:

    hmm...the only symbol that would come to mind would be the ^ symbol? so... 10000^? but 1000P sounds good either way~ in fact it kinds matches.

    You're right. Ф is f/ph and П is p. My mistake.

    I mean whatever ctrl+shift+4 does
     
  15. Nothing. A Shift+4 does a dollar sign $, though. I think this was about it.

    The idea was that if someone wanted to make a dollar sign and Shift+4 is used to make the pixel symbol Ctrl+Shift+4 could be used.

    There is a program to customize keyboard shortcuts for symbols, but everyone would have to get it and that'd be annoying...

    Also, is there any way to add a poll to this thread or is it too late for that?

    Yea... but what about on these forums? I HIGHLY agree with a special ingame symbol though...

    A solution for usage on the forums is to make an emotocon for it that would look identical to the ingame one.
