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
