We recently had a case where someone could not sign in on the wiki, because their forum account name contained special characters like "_", and our wiki software apparently cannot handle those.

To prevent similar cases happening in future, I've set the forums to require display names to only use standard letters/numbers, IE: no more "_" and similar special characters in displaynames. Anyone signing up to the forums from now on will need to use a name without special characters.

Existing forum accounts with special characters in their name can stay as-is, unless you intend to edit the wiki. If you have such an account and want to edit the wiki, you will need to contact me so I can rename your forum account.
