Can Not Get Into My Old Account

Postby RANGER » Sun May 26, 2013 8:28 pm

I can not get into my old account. I tried to log in and none of my usual passwords would work. It has been a while since I have logged in so I was thinking maybe it was inactivated? When I tried to retrieve my password, it said I was not authorized to do so. Since I do not know how else to contact an Admin/Mod, I am posting this thread. My old name was RANGER295 which I would much rather use than this one. Thanks.

I'll Email you a new password for: RANGER295. You can change it to what ever you like afterward. :)

Post here again once you're in or if you continue to have problems.

And, welcome back. :)

Thank you! I am back in. Now it will not allow me to edit my password. It gives me a spot for my old password but not my new one. If this one can't be fixed I can deal with using the temp one. Is there any possibility that my privileges got clipped somehow?

Go to your Control Panel, Profile, Edit account settings.

There you should find means of changing your password.

Are you not seeing that?

That is what I tried to do but that is not what my screen looks like. Here is a screen shot. There is no place for a new password. PS. Thanks for all of your help. I am a moderator for another forum that has over 150,000 members and know how annoying dealing with individual issues can be.

If you enter your current password and submit you should be able to get into that same screen and change it.
