Weird login question.

Alby · #1 03-21-2009, 10:50 AM

I'm trying to login through the login server on any one of my three accounts registered under this forum username. Two of those accounts I cannot log in to, it's giving me 'incorrect password'. One of the user accounts works just fine.

I can log into the user CP section here, and change all three passwords without any problems, so I know the actual password is correct for the two logins that are not working. I can log in on any number of other accounts not under this forum username, without problem, so I don't believe the login is erroring, because it wouldn't just do it for those two accounts and no others.

I also had a friend try to log in with those two accounts, and he couldn't either - he lives across the country from me.

Any suggestions?

I have a similar problem.

I get wrong username/password error when I try to log in. I have used the exact same login password before without problem. Also when I try a different username and password I first get the error "can't establish connection". When I trie the same again I get the familiar "wrong username/password" message. It is all very weired.

Anyone have any suggestions?

even changing the PW for the account doesnt seem to affect it!

I think I found a fix. Try changing your password to something that is only 6 characters. My previous password was 15 characters, and I changed it down to 6 and it appears to work now fine. It seems like somehow any characters over 6 were edited and caused the password to error.

6 digit pw worked for me

I'm getting the same incorrect username/pw message, but cannot remember my old forum account that was used for the login account. The email that was used for it is long gone with an old isp I haven't used in years, is there anything I can do to recover it?

Same boat as velocian17.. I can't remember for the life of me the email I used for my 2 year old accounts.. And two of my login accounts are having this password error :(

I am having the same situation. I can change the passwords but the account won't let me in. Could an admin send me a private msg

MichaelMontana · #14 03-21-2009, 06:31 PM

same issue, changing the password to 6 characters didnt do anything for me

MichaelMontana · #15 03-21-2009, 07:00 PM

and it seems to be happening with new accounts maybe, because my friend that got me into this has 3 accounts and they all work for him.
