Concise Description

Descriptive Error Messages for Usernames During Registration

Description

It would be nice if there was descriptive error messages for invalid characters when creating a username. It would be preferable if the error message appeared when an invalid character was inputed, and not only when the register button is clicked.

For example, I attempted to sign up with Riddle.Me.Sid and got a green checkmark on the field:

It was only after I clicked register that I got an error message:

This still left me confused because I wasn't sure if any special characters are allowed, and if so which ones?

Solution Proposed

I believe the friendliest solution would be to have the error message appear the moment an invalid character is inputted. At the very least, updating the error to either state "No special characters allowed" or list the valid special characters would be helpful.

I would be happy to write code for this if the idea is accepted!
