    [SOLVED] Log-in problem...

    Seems like nearly every time I try to log-in here my password no longer works. Today was like the fifth time I've had to change it. If I'm doing something wrong I would like to know what my mistake is.

    Hello

    We recently had some login issues that wound up being caused by certain ads that were being displayed on the website. If you should continue to have login problems, please give us as much info as possible, such as steps needed to reproduce the problem, any error messages you receive, status messages shown in your browser status bar, etc.

    Thanks for the feedback.

    I had no problem this time, but it seems to come and go. Is there a way to make contact (report problems) if one cannot log-in? Some forums have a sort of emergency contact button, but don't see anything like it here.

    Yes, you can use the Contact Us link that's found in the lower-left corner of each page on the forums for reporting any login issues.

    Glad you had no problems logging in this time. We think the prior login issue has been solved, but not sure if your login issue is related. Hopefully it won't show itself again.

    Thanks for the feedback.
