Hi, this is a low-priority item on my (and quite possibly other gods) todo-list. Its a low priority because it doesnt really have a signifigant impact on the site, its just a point of frustration for new users that want their specific handle.

Its also low priority because the proper solution is to change the user creation and that requires a fair amount of work to do, for very little payoff as no pmdevil stands to personally profit from doing it as they already have accounts that presumably they are happy with. Whats to stop this becoming a site issue? Nothing really, but the gods would eventually notice and then we'd update the site to prevent it. So really all that somebody would do is waste their own time to force us to re-prioritize our todo-list and resolve the problem once and for all.

BTW, if you can tell me via email what the user account was and what the details were that you did enter, I can fix the account to allow you to use it. Well, i can if you can provide sufficient details to convince me you arent hacking someones account. :-)

Updated:And the user is all sorted now...
