state what you want it changed to, that way when a Dev sees it they can change it.

we seriously need a way to prevent people from using spaces and special characters in their forum name. it makes banning/flagging people on servers alot more difficult.

PHP code to check if a string has something other than word characters (0-9a-Z_)

Code:
if(preg_match("/\W/", $string) {
   error("Invalid characters in name, please use only a-Z 0-9 and _");
}
error() being pseudo code of course... could forward to invalid_name.php or something to spit that out..
