Reproducible: Always

I think something is mangling your name with our web server's old-ish PHP mysql driver.  The query that updates the forum record seems to be entering the DB just fine, and issuing the query from the commandline works as expected.

We're planning on upgrading our web server images early this summer; in the meanwhile (and I hate to ask this) would it be possible to use a plain "z" in your name?

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
