Nor I.
What sorts of usernames were you trying?

had the same issue when joining the bbpress forums and on the couple of sites where I have bbpress running...

I don't think spaces are allowed. In your example, you use one.
What specificly was the error that you received? Right now all we can do is guess as to your issue since you give us no details.
