Does anyone know how to allow the underscore? I would really like to allow it.

Right here, read how to customize beyond the admin screens: https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/changing-internal-configuration-settings/

I tried what @modemlooper suggested, and there is nothing in that list that allows for underscores to be used. WordPress allows underscores to be used, but BuddyPress does not. I deactivated BuddyPress and was able to register with an ‘_’ underscore in my username. I am working on a hack for this as we speak.

WordPress 3.9.1 / BuddyPress 2.0.1 Installed

Hey.. any updates? I’d like to be able to manually enter new users with their e-mail as username, but it’s not allowing any special characters. 🙁
