I see people whose Pogo username contains characters like _ (underscore) and --- (dashes) yet when I try to create a name using those characters I'm told they are not allowed.
Does anyone know why it won't let me, or how to actually be able to do it?

I wondered if it might be older accounts. I know if you create an account with an AOL email address now it will do the underscore automatically, adding AOL at the end of the username. Thanks!

Mine ends in a underscore and it is also an older account. My newer ones did not allow it and needed numbers after it. *Edit by me* I have an older account and I tried to do a new one for the subway contest and I tried to us the numbers 69 together and it is not allowed! It was allowed before in one of my older accounts! LOL
With the newer accounts they make sure it is politically correct (e.g. no sex, race or religious terms or meanings that they can decipher.)

My friends and my daughter know I belong to the dark side also.  Last night when I was doing the Subway codes hubby walked past and said, "Are you actually playing or are you cheating again?" He has no faith in me!

He has no faith in me!  The nerve! Doesn't he realize there isn't a cheat for the Subway game? But let me tell you, if there was I would be so alright with that.

You know, I was wondering that myself, because I have a "69" at the end of my username and I found that that is NOT allowed anymore either....I think its a conspiracy!!!

It's kind of frustrating, but I guess I have far better things to lose sleep over, like hot romance novels.

If I could find a way to get him into my bed, do you really think I'd be on this forum posting?  I'm considering a life size poster for the ceiling, though.  He's a model I think... not from the cover of one of my books and it's a good thing cuz I'd never get the book opened up to read it if he were.
