What are the username characters?
I'm making an cloud characters to numbers converter and vise versa, but I don't know what characters can be used in a username (Apart from letters and numbers). Does anyone know?

I think pretty much any characters can be usedThat's completely incorrect.
The only characters that can be in a scratch username apart form numbers and letters are the underscore (_) and hyphen (-)

Full stops are the same as ‘dots’ in web addresses so this could never happen on any website where the username is in the web address.I'm afraid you're wrong with that one, as well:I think full stops can be used as well.I think pretty much any characters can be usedThat's completely incorrect.

Can it contain spaces?No, because the username is part of a web address (which can't contain spaces). I think it substitutes a space bar as ‘%20’ or similar.
