You entered an invalid Skype name.

Hello MODS and Admin

i can't add my skype to my BHW Profile, my skype is live:blackhatexperts and when i try to update it from dashboard the system don't accept it , it gives me an Error " You entered an invalid Skype name "

Thread related to this problem has been opened before also by http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackhat-seo/members/599093-rizzoli.html over here http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackhat-seo/forum-suggestions-feedback/700818-cant-add-my-skype.html

it seems there is a serious bug and needs to be fixed ASAP .

It would be great if someone can help to fix this up for all of us.

Thanks

Thanks for the heads-up, AmazonSEO:

I will notify the Admins and point them to this thread.
I'm sure they will look into it and see what can be done.

Hi AmazonSEO

Skypenames can't contain :'s we verify Skype names against current Skype requirements.

From Skype
"What is my Skype Name?
Your Skype Name is your unique username for Skype. It must be between 6-32 characters, start with a letter and contain only letters and numbers (no spaces or special characters)."

The SKYPE name you're trying to enter "live:blackhatexperts" isn't a valid Skype name and therefore won't be accepted.
