Hi websissy,

I think it's simply that this is a hacker enclave and they love their handles. You just need to take a peek at the Member Directory to verify that symbols and spaces are popular, and the weirder, the better.

It is interesting that there was quick help for ???`S?LV?R???` when he had problems with one or another of his tilde grave accent thingies not working in a search or registration or something, but a very practical problem like this falls on deaf ears.

How would you search on ???`S?LV?R???` ? It took me about five minutes to find his/her login name. How would you chat with ???`S?LV?R???` in a /cmd environment?
How would you leave feedback for ???`S?LV?R???` on an auction plugin by typing his/her name into a form?

Sorry I don't mean to direct any of this frustration at ???`S?LV?R???` whom, I am sure is a wonderful person. I am disturbed by the lack of interest in this very real problem. I guess I will take it back to vbulletin.com as a suggestion for future implementation and then see if I can do something about fixing it myself.

Regards,

Matt
