Trouble logging in
Hi,
Today I had to try logging in a dozen or so times during the last hour. Each time I got an invalid password error message, and the password reset would not work because it rejected my e-mail address when I clicked the link in the reset e-mail I had just received. When I finally managed to log in I got a message about an invalid security token. Meaning no disrespect to however maintains this site which I have happily used for 17 years - and for which I am thankful: this website has been experiencing several issues for the last year or so. While none of the problems have been more than slightly annoying and I understand you must be busy doing other things than maintaining this site: having to try logging in several dozen times gets rather discouraging.
Again thank you. Yours,
Peter Swinkels

Re: Trouble logging in
The short version is that this site and it's sister sites had an issue this morning... That issue is now resolved.
Glad you made it back in.

Steve,
Thank goodness, for a moment I was worried about having been banned. To the people who maintain the site: good job fixing this issue. Logging in again works as expected. Thank you!
yours,
Peter Swinkels
EDIT:
Yes, I am glad too. :-)

If you get banned, you'll see a message to that effect. Guess how I know....

Yes Shaggy, as Super Moderator you are the one who bans people, right?

No, he's speaking from the perspective of "one who hast been banned".

Sounds like a familiar experience. And Passel, your signature: so true!
