Characters in username

There was a thread recently that mentioned that they were asked to use only lowercase in username. I noticed that in the code you gave to incorporate the registration part into the login widget, and it was stating lowercase and/or numbers only, One of my testers happened to use a hyphen in the registration form (the main one, not the widget one) and the registration never happened, so i guess it is right that there are some limitations in the characters used.

Just for information, in case it is useful to someone else.

Thanks for the feedback, Cassel. I'm sure it'll help others that search for this. :)

I know it has nothing to do with s2Member, but do you know if there is a way to add that requirement to the actual registration page?

What requirement?

Oh... you mean adding that legend to the other registration form? You mean the free registration pro-form or the standard WordPress registration one?

I was thinking of the main registration page (nothing to do with s2Member).
