Registering for my health insurance's online portal thingy.

I've heard of password requirements, but username requirements?

And the "no more than one period in a row" smells an awful lot like directory traversal...

Username Requirements:
6-25 characters
at least one letter
at least one number
cannot include spaces
only these special characters can be used: _ ~ . @ -
cannot have more than one period in a row

@Dio9sys@haunted.computer my name still gets rejected in a lot of places (CamelCase first name, dictionary word last name). Or it gets converted to fit their system (for example shifting "Ann" to a middle name) so there are some pretty wonky variations of it out there.

Edit to add- that really wasn't what your thread was about, but it just reminded me of silly name requirements.
