I'm having trouble trying to register. I'm using v7.6. When I try to register, I get an error saying that the username is already taken - but it isn't. I log in as the admin - no users with anything remotely close to what I'm trying to register with.

There are 196 users registered, is there a limit to # of users?
 
Any suggestions?
 
Thanx.

There are certain reserve words that can not be used in usernames, one of them being 'admin'

I'm not trying to register "admin", I'm trying to register as a new user, it's not letting me - keeps saying username already in use, there is no username in use that I'm trying to register with. No users have registered with the name I want to use (i.e. - jjsmith).
 
Any suggestions?

Like I said there are certain reserve words, I can not remember them all off hand but the username you are trying to register probably contains one of these reserve words.

How do I find out what the reserve words are?
Or, how do I find out what words I CAN'T use?
