There has been a lot of discussion on this one.  Check the archives.

First telnet/ssh into your server, then:
cd /home/sites/sitex/web
ln -s /home/sites/sitex/users/username/web username
chown username username

** Replace username with the user's name  you want to remove the tilde (~) 
from.

This shouldn't cause any problems that I know of except that you won't be 
able to create directories with the same name as the username in the main site.
