Ampersand issue with user names

Post by JenniferDean » Mon Oct 25, 2010 10:07 am

We had signed up as our normal name- Jennifer&Dean but not been able to log onto the forums. So we contacted the admin and Jerry was able to test a few things. Turned out the forums couldn't handle the "&" symbol in our name. So he changed our user name at our request so we wouldn't have to sign up again.

So, just in case anyone else runs into a similar issue, I'm mentioning it here. Symbols can keep people from being able to post in the forums.

All 12 users who had an ampersand in their name were notified. :)
