WTF?

Post by crackpot1 »

Every time I get logged out of this forum the boeard forgets my password and I have to get it reset. It's usually not that big of a deal but since I now don't have access to my email I cant "get a new password".

Can't you just type your old password in?
Bah!

Maybe you've been banned... ;)

Seriously though, check to see if somebody has played a prank with your keyboard... swapping the M and N keys around type thing.
Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?

it seems to have happened since some of the new board security features have been implemented most notably the new password restrictions.

CP. I think the explanation is obvious....

Hen, Strop, Daze, and Reality all hate you, and they're trying to drive you nuts....

I can't work this thing?

I leave that to RB and Daisy. (Note the absence of husband from the list. I don't leave the running of the Board to him.)

Oi, Gob. Have a word to Daisy and RB about Crackpot's problem.
Bah!

Cheers mate, glad to hear it.

Miles is having the same problem.

I'll ask R-B to look into it.

I cannot see why it is happening, but I'm no rocket surgeon.

Maybe the website has been hacked by one of our spammer friends....

I'm no expert at this either, but I've had this sort of thing happen with websites, so I've learned a few basic "trouble shoot" things from my IT guy....

I'd go into the File Manager and see if there are any files there that look unfamiliar....

I finally got back in, after several days. I still had to answer one of those questions to manage it. Thanks Strop. :ok
I expect to go straight to hell...........at least I won't have to spend time making new friends.

Maybe this'll help I dunno, but Firefox let's you disable cookies for everything. It's kept FaceBook from stalking me...
