You have these options:

1. type your password in again but pretend you are not a complete spazmo.

2. stop typing with your cock.

3. Reset your password assuming you did not think you were being clever ages ago by using a fake e-mail address.

4. Failing all that, post here again and I will make modifications to your account, like ad an e-mail address that works or set your password to some kind of default for you to change later.

We have these problems because spammers are attacking our board by trying to take over legit accounts and sometimes too many log in attempts means a constant failure for a day or two.

RYP and I have brought this up with the sysadmins here and they responded by mailing tins of excrement to our elderly relatives.

No such luck. I drank too much coffee and thus couldn't hold my dick still to type with it. That or asking to resend the activation e-mail got me a message saying my profile has already been activated.

Is your e-mail the same in your profile?

Then attempt to log in. click on forgot your password and get one sent to you to re-activate it. Did you try that already? What failed? Your account is active so you do not need to reactivate it but this board has a feature to mail you a new password if you have forgotten yours, but I do not get or not if that has worked.

Try it. Poke around with stuff. Poking around and trying variations of the same thing with always get results. Then post about it in detail here so I can see if there is a bigger problem here with the board.

Interesting.

I think we are in dire need of a forum upgrade. The reason for the problems is hackers trying to get into accounts. RYP and I have had similar problems and posters who registered closer to the beginning are more likely to have their accounts targeted.

I heard we are going to be switching servers and then doing the upgrade. Switching servers is a process that cannot be rushed and needs testing and stuff so it might be a while for these problems to vanish.

post here still if you have problems but I was told that people are working on this issue.
