Log In Problems

Postby joshuacool on Wed Feb 24, 2010 5:48 pm

Ever time I log in it doesn' t recognize my password. So I have to get a new, hard to remember, password. I have a sheet of paper with 12 different passwords on it.
any help?

Hey Joshua, can you give us a little more info?

You are using flash right, not iphone?

Are you sure you are typing the password in correctly(like get a new one, copy, log out, try to log back in by pasting it)? How about the username? Usernames might be case sensitive now, are you maybe trying to uppercase a character in your username? Passwords will be case sensitive for sure as well.

Do you have any funky characters in your password like \,*' ?

I just tried a few case variations of my name and it still seems to log in fine.

1. I'm using Windows Vista
2. I type the password at least 4 times and I make sure I have the right case.
3. I got my username right.
4. No funky charaters

Are you typing this password into the Game, the Website, or the Forum? There are three distinct areas to login to. :)

Hm. First time I've heard of the forum having password issues. Does anyone have your email address? They might be playing a prank on you and resetting your password.

Does your password stop working over time, or is it every time you visit the webpage?

Once the password is reset and you are logged in, you can go to the User Control Panel (link at the top of the forum) to change your password to something more familiar to you.

It works when I reset it. but when I shut my computer down it logs me out of all the stuff I'm logged into. Then it won't work.
