Anyone else no longer have access to old account?

[Saratk323]

So, I tried to log in with my old account that I’ve had for like, 20 years saratk, and it said password is incorrect… it definitely wasn’t, and the email attached to that account is probably 20 years old. I created a new account, and not the end of the world, I’m more concerned about not being able to access messages. Anyone else having this issue? Is there a fix?

I'm not intentionally trying to be dense I swear, this new format is confusing. How do I get a message to Jeff?

Hi there I'm sorry but I don't see the email can message it to me? A friend needs help logging in.

Mine was rejected too -- Not "strong" enough.... Click on "Forgot password?" and you'll get an email which has directions or a link to reset it. Old passwords are often not considered "strong" enough, I think this new format rejects weak passwords (mine was all lower case, no number). I reset my password with the same word/s but capitalized the first letter and added a number, and it was accepted ("strong"), so I got back in.

Redundant, please delete! Thanks

I just realized the left sidebar isn't visible on mobile. Sorry!

Email me at [email protected] and I'll get you straightened out

I'm curious, what happened? Just a site update?

Yes, we upgraded to new forum software.

How do I delete my private messages? Previously I could click on "delete" and then "proceed". I can't find a way to delete dozens of messages.

With the new forum, you "leave" a "conversation" instead of deleting it. The effect is the same, it's just how the developers of this software decided to frame the same action.

To leave the conversation, click "leave" in the top right of it.
