Title: Usernames with certain characters do not work due to missing encoding » Usernames with certain characters not synced due to missing encoding
Assigned: Unassigned » sun

While Drupal stores user names in UTF8, vBulletin uses a pretty weird approach on escaping special characters. This affects many characters that are not in latin1, but also some control characters. Hence, when trying to synchronize users between Drupal and vBulletin, DrupalvB needs to apply the same escaping.
