Hey, guys…

I’d really, really like to be able to create usernames / screen names for admins / moderators that have a reserved word in them — like SitenameFred — but bar other members from creating usernames and screen names that contain the reserved word (Sitename).

Unfortunately, the Restricted Names features in User Banning also stop SuperAdmins.

I can temporarily turn off the restriction, make a new moderator name and turn it back on, but that’s just a tad unsure, since someone might happen to create a restricted name while it’s off.

Would it be possible to allow SuperAdmins to use the restricted names, or to add an warning & override dialog?

Thanks!
