I'm getting the same loop.

Several tests later and all I get is returned to the same page.E-mailing Darren.

Ah... not just me then. At least, that's something.

Thank you.

Y'welcome Falcon!

Still no fix to this little merry-go-round.Keep getting sent back to the reset password page,but didn't even get the captcha tickboxes to do this time.

Odd!

[Falcon Horus]

Aw, gateworld must trust you enough to know you're not a replicator.

I, on the other hand, ... there's still suspicion -- tick the box please... and then get send back to go.

It's a neverending loop.

As account deletion is not permitted, I would like to request a username change. The FAQs said to private message, but I'm not sure how to do that.

[Bagpuss]

Hi and welcome!

Righto,as you've literally just joined today,you're on Probie Status,so won't be able to use private messaging for a while.
However,just queue a post in here letting us know the username you'd prefer so we can check the database and get back to you asap.

Hopefully we can quickly make the change,but bear in mind it's a once - only change so be sure it's a new name you'll want to keep.

[lostinterloper]

Thank you for your fast response, I would like my new username to be lostinterloper please.

[Bagpuss]

Change made and you're very welcome!

Hey folks, I need some immediate help! I'm trying to post some photos in the forums, but can't for some reason. I can't figure out why not, either. Can you all help me? Thanks!

[Bagpuss]

Imgur and imgbox are pretty good for free pic hosting and posting,but maybe you already figured that out,seeing iiradned already replied to you in Members helping Members,and you've been able to post to the counting game in OT Chatter

Yes, I did. I use Imgur, but sometimes it still won't let me post for some reason. Don't know why...

Is it just me or has it become impossible to post comments under the news articles on the main page (not the forum)? No matter how many times I click "I'm not a robot" and "post comment", nothing happens.

[Bagpuss]

Hi there dantini!
We had a very similar problem back in January.At that time,captcha seemed to be part of the problem,but this time I can't log in,reset my password or even try to create a new GW Home account - so about all I can do is e-mail Darren to see if he or Greg can sort it all out.

[Bagpuss]

E-mailed the details - now to wait on a reply.

[Darren]

Hey, all! I've been banging my head against this login and new user reg issue (on the main site only) for a while now, but I think I finally have the cause isolated. Hopefully Greg can help me fix it in short order.

Meanwhile my extended thanks for your extended patience!

[Falcon Horus]

Oh shoot... I remember that issue, and was going to report back. I guess that's no longer necessary.

Thumbs up on the fix! (or fixing)
