Can't update profile because of special characters in username

[Silly Burrito]

I'm trying to update my profile to change it to Central time. However, when I click submit, it says that my username has special characters. I'm guessing it's the space, but is there any way I can get this changed without changing my username?

Thanks!

They won't fix the software, so you'll have to send a PM to "AnandTech Moderator" via the send PM box on the PM page, and ask them to remove the space. 🙁

D'oh...I figured that would be it.

Thanks jleichty.

The software is not broken, so there is nothing to fix. We've been through this a few hundred times 😉.

Maybe they could put the back the note that used to say something along the lines of "please search to see if your problem has been posted".

I did a search on username and only came up with four hits. Now if someone searches, at least they'll find this thread.
