Maybe it only allows letters.

Can you just spell out the numbers, or go numeric? Try using "EclipseTheHog" or "Doomer".

Yes, that is it. You can only use letters A-Z. no underscore, numbers, ymbols, spaces, or any other non-letter symbols.

Also, I like PhBB better because it is easier to use, and is put together better. I could hardly find out how to register witht the other forum! This one allows easier movement and has a nice look to it. Blue!

BTW, when will we know the final result as to which wil be the forum of choice?

BTW, phpBB is also nice because it is much like the current forum!

P.S. I couldn't find how to register on the tangler because i looked for a direct link. I figured there would be a "JOIN HERE" on the home page-lol.

also, sorry for double post

mm, sorry about that, it seems to be a mistake (alphanumeric would imply to me that darkaerial9 should be fine), I've tried changing a setting which should make it possible to use numbers and underscores ( _ ). However the phpBB software at http://sodaplay.hostingdelivered.com is a slightly out of date "release candidate 1" version which will be updated when http://www.phpbb.com complete their eagerly anticipated 3.0 "gold" release, so there might still be some rough edges in the software. You can see a more up-to-date version of phpBB ("release candidate 4") at http://www.phpbb.com/community

Thanks ever so for all your feedback so far, it's a big help to us and we'll keep you informed as we progress towards settling on a new forum.

Dear Ed,

I Reccomend you use simple machines. It is easier to use, works on phpBB and you can add it on a link like New.Sodaplay.com/Forum. It has more stats Such as Most veiwed topics and top ten posters. It is compatible With My PC also. I find it very annoying that This Forum is moving to a site that takes me an hour to get to!.

Maybe MyBB? (http://www.mybboard.net/)
I'm an admin on a MyBB powered forum, and it has many admin features. If you don't have PHP installed on your server you can use this hosting service: http://createmybb.com/

I was having problems getting phpBB to send me a confirmation email, but then I tried again using a disposable email address (email.bugmenot.org). It worked on the second try.
