I love that new forum smell

[rgG-New]

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 posted my experience in another thread.   A critical missing required step is deleting cookies left over from the old forum.

Yeah, I tried all the fixes and even DL a new version of FF with no user history at all and still the same thing. 
It says I have done the activation but still will not let me in. Oh well, maybe it will get worked out, or not. The main thing is the Forum is back

Try changing your password.

Tried that, too. No joy
