I'm using the beta style, so it might not occur for everyone. If you look at the post by whoopsadaisydoodles (one word) http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055804520&p=64085593 it's shifting the page layout over, should the css not be forcing a wrap once the width goes over a set px/% ?

Names were restricted a while back to limit them to 15 characters to prevent new users from picking usernames which would do this. The restriction was not retroactively applied to old user accounts.

If you want to force it to keep the layout you could reduce the font size a notch.

Or you could alos use this css feature to cut it off:

It's probably fine as it is though.
