A new members just registered himself as: [Bostream]Mikee

A private message cannot be sent to him and his name appears as: [Bostream]Mikee

I acknowledge the need of the forum software to translate characters to make web based content safer. I suspect such nicknames should be disallowed?

This bug has already been reported and fix for the next version, for now just change the part [ to [ and ] to ] and you will still beable to send them a private message.
