Problem Details:
Accessing https://osu.ppy.sh/s/344082 and clicking on the artist name will take you to https://osu.ppy.sh/p/beatmaplist?q=Orange%20Heart(cv:Honda%20Mariko)%20Neptune(cv:Tanaka%20Rie), with the colons not being escaped properly, resulting in them not showing up in the query.

Similarly, accessing https://osu.ppy.sh/s/153776 and clicking on the artist name will take you to https://osu.ppy.sh/p/beatmaplist?q=yuikonnu%20&%20ayaponzu*, with the ampersand not being escaped, resulting in everything after and including the ampersand being removed from the query.

Those characters simply can't be used in the search. Replacing such characters with a space instead of removing them might be better.
Confirming.

Problem Details:
you can have "-" this thing in usernames like https://osu.ppy.sh/u/2202645 but searching for this exact thing will remove the "-" from your search so you literally cannot search for a valid username


Video or screenshot showing the problem:
https://osu.ppy.sh/p/beatmaplist?q=Desperate-kun
lmao


osu! version: 20151016.8 (latest)

generally idk which other characters trigger a similar behaviour but you should be able to search for everything you're allowed to put in your username, shouldn't you? right now every username containing "-" breaks the search and tags such as desperate-kun basically become a worthless aid when searching something

edit: damn
and i remember reporting the same thing for &
