Porblem with dash as last character of login

My username ends with a dash. Forum does not work correctly when I click on my name in profile. It sends me to profile of user 'JANOS'. Can it be that some people cannot send me messages? Can this be fixed somehow?

This "improved" FT indexing system has caused this very problem since April 2009.

On 4/21/2009, I raised this exact same question (re: profile mismatch. Please read post#133 and beyond) but I don't think IB ever works on nor addresses this issue. At least I've never heard anything from IB, both publicly and privately, w/r/t this annoying problem.

Not sure if it's a (technical) problem with no fix as far as FT goes.

Unfortunately, this is a known bug and the only "fix" is to change your FlyerTalk username. I've sent you a PM to initiate the process.
