There weren't when I checked about a year ago. There is a good ssh client for android, 
so you can always ssh to a box with slrn installed.

Usernames can't have special characters in them, because nyms are often links and 
most users wouldn't know that %35%37 was the same person as "#%".

The space character is an exception because nyms often have spaces in them and most 
people (geeks anyway) should know that %20 is a space.

So Usenet nyms get characters that can't be in urls replaced with a space. This 
is on purpose.

I don't know why your profile link is squte.com/~q-kontinuum. I'd expect it to 
be squte.com/~q%20kontinuum, so it looks like a bug.
Its the same for squte.com/~true-satan, squte.com/~oregonian-haruspex etc.

You don't have to give your real name, but type the actual string "real name". 
The captcha has to be confusing enough to trick bots.


 I've changed it now.

The log shows several emails sent to achsis_of_elvis@yahoo.com. Are they in your 
spam folder? Or is there another address you could use?

That needs a longer reply than I've time for now, I'll answer later if that's 
OK.
