Problems after changing password

Postby ProbablyMike » Wed Apr 16, 2014 10:33 pm

Hi,

I've just changed my password on the forums, but now cannot login to the roms section on the main site.

I've logged out of the forum, cleared cookies etc, tried a different browser.
I can log back into the forum (I'm posting this!) but whenever I try to login the main site I get "Wrong username/password"

I've type my password into Notepad, and copied & pasted it to login to the forums which works, but then does not work when pasted to the main site.

Please help!
Cheers,
Mike

Hi,

Try changing your password again but this time don't use too many symbols. Try and use # or @, don't use " or ' and use CAPS as well as numbers.

Sometimes certain symbols don't translate properly in the site code.

I hope this helps.

Cheers, changed it again, not using so many symbols this time and it's working good.

Many thanks,
Mike
