Topic: Please remove Special Characters from your usernames.

Any reason I'd need to edit mine? I almost always use underscores - too many systems can handle those better than spaces. :-) Cheers!

Do these slashes count? I only have them because shane is already taken.

[Rebecca Myers]

They count.

Well what if I don't mind not getting PM's? I don't think the name confusion applies because it's pretty obvious my name is shane, what's the big deal?

I never knew of this. Would the slashed o in my name count? I can't imagine that being a problem but yeah.

Got rid of the apostrophe on my name. Wow, didn't even realize that PMs are impossible with special characters.

Might be there to prevent choppy water from flying into the boat...He could have probably found a way to outfit a pod-like extension to the splash guard, but this might do as well.

Hi,

Im trying to find a way to get puddletag to automatically remove or replace certain special characters when Tag->File.  I have some mp3s with "<" and ">" which are not in the set of those automatically removed by puddletag, so they are still there when I Tag->File, but when I backup with rsync these files wont be copied because of the "<" and ">" characters.  I there a way to implement the automatic removal with some ifsomething in the pattern I use?  Thanks

bootrec /fixmbr is the right way.
I dont know why it fail.
Be sure that only one harddisk and no USB-Memory is in the system to modify the right MBR.
