Something weird happens.

Here is the example I encountered:

Someone had changed their username to "♪Lex<3Yaoi♪", and once they logged out, they were un-able to log back in. I then searched for that exact username via the AdminCP, and it returned no results, but.. when searching for just the "Lex" part of the name, the search found it, and it displayed exactly as they said it did, the same exact name I typed earlier that showed no results.

I'm going to take a guess and assume it's some mixup between the actual character and the html to display the character.

If this can't be fixed to allow the special characters to work properly, then could there be a way to disable special character names only with this mod?

Thanks.

I think that's cause how I am handling it with the form. I made some errors in how I stripped and add slashes. I'll try and apply a fix for the next release.
