Can't have usernames that start with _

I wanted my name to be _cloth, but couldn't because you can't. Is this a bug or something?

Why "_cloth" though?

I think it's something to do with you can't have a symbol as the first character.
Take scratch7_13, (s)he has an underscore in h(is/er) name!

You could try cloth_ . Clearly, a username cannot start with "_," so just change it around.
