[MSEA] Symbols in IGNs'?

I logged in today (after like 2 weeks) and I saw that some characters had symbols in their IGNs. By symbols I mean !@#$%&, if you get what I mean. Anyway, I asked my guild alliance on this, and they all replied that symbols can now be used in IGNs. Can someone confirm this is true?

EDIT: Also, not only those symbols can be used. I saw fractions, and I do mean fractions. I'll take a screenshot when I get the chance.
