I have this regex in my model post:

validates_format_of :description, :username, :with => /^(?:[^\W_]|\s)*$/u, :message => "should only contain letters, numbers, or .,-_@"

But this regex does not allow dots “.” and commas “,“.

I want allow add this characters to this regex.

How can I allow that this regex works fine for fields like username or textareas for validate letters, numbers, commas, dots…etc
