I love that new forum smell

[Michael]

I am in with a slightly altered name, till they get the activation bug worked out

I decided to use a slightly more normal name while maintaining my old one for reference.

It took some work to get activated. I tried using my old name/password combination which didn’t work; I tried to reset my password, and messed that up; I tried enough times that it locked me out for 15 minutes; the forum told me I didn’t coexist when I tried searching for my name in the list of forumites, only for me to find it and thus I knew I didn’t coexist indeed exist. (Quiet down, you existential fools!!)

It told me that I needed to read the email (I did more than once); it told me that I needed to address the captya question (I did that too). Finally, I double checked email, and lo and behold, I had another email with a new password (musta done sumfin right!!). That finally worked. 

Needless to say, I don’t like giving up. Some would call it a personality flaw.

I went through pretty much the same thing. After getting locked out and letting it sit for an hour, I did it all again and also got a new password and here I am.

Thanks so much OWC!

EDIT: Well, I figured out how to delete the 3 repeats of this post. I don't know how they happened but I surely did something wrong.
