Special characters in username make problems for app

[sneakyRay]

Hey,
when I registered I think I accidentally filled in my password as my username and this is why I have this weird looking one. I know you can't change your username afterwards and I learned to live with it and that's ok.
BUT my username seems to be a problem for the blu-ray.com app. I always get "incorrect username or password". I tried several times and made sure I had no typos in it but it still never works. I assume it's because the special characters like @, " or ^ are causing problems. I would love to use this app, so maybe someone could check the issue or maybe even make an exception and let me change my username?
I love the site but it would be a shame if I can't use the app.

Thanks in advance

If you message a mod explaining why you want your username changed then they might (I've seen a few frequent-ish users that have had their usernames changed).

Oh ok, I thought this would be the place for this. Thanks for your response.
Is there a list of mods? Or someone in particular I should contact?

At the bottom of each forum is the list of mods for that forum. In this case, I see Blu Titan respond in this forum. I would start there.

I hope you get your request for a “new” username, b/c what you have now is Noooo!

Someone changed my user name and it is very much appreciated!
The app log in works with the new one.
