I usually let them use whatever they like, not force them to use their email address, to prevent two users from having the same username I just check the db before inserting the name to ensure that no one has that name already. If there is a duplicate I send them back to the registration page and let them choose another. Using an email address reduces the chances of duplicate addresses but I still think it would be a good idea to check the db before inserting because someone can accidentally type the wrong email address (however unlikely it may be).....
btw....Mike....I have no life....but why are you online on Memorial weekend Sunday????
