Troubling Signing In


AltAccount2

Recommended Posts

I am in the exact same situation. No matter what I do, I arrive at that same image as above (this includes following links from email, going to the site directly, logging out by manually entering the URL and logging back in, etc). My original username is "zmunkz". I just created this new one as a test, and I am able to access the forums now.  This happened once the site was updated to the new platform.

Can anyone help?

On the old site, you had to log in with your original username, no matter what you might have changed it to since.

On the new site, you log in using your CURRENT screen name.  Doesn't matter what your original name was, the site is now smart enough to ID you by your current name.

I logged in just now and it takes me right to that validation screen above.  If I manually go to this address: http://17thshard.com/forum/logout/ from there, I get this screen (which is the closest to the forum I can get)... but clicking ANYTHING brings be back to the validation page.  Maybe an admin can check the status of my account? Somewhere the system seems to think I need to validate even though I have over a year ago.

Thanks in advance.... let me know if there is anything else I could try.

Hey guys. Sorry for the delay. I have been very sick...

I really don't know why this error occurred, but I believe I have fixed this with your accounts. rdpulfer, I have reset your password regarding this and that didn't work, so you'll need to use the forgot your password tool, or contact me. But the accounts should be working now.

Within about a day or so I'll be merging these alt accounts, assuming everything with you guys works.

Ahh, I breathe stromlight again! Thanks @chaos, it worked. Hope you feel better. zmunkz2 can be merged or deleted, as you see fit.

Thanks again!

Sorry to necro this thread, but I've emailed Chaos and I haven't gotten a response. I'm experiencing this validation error; can anyone help me contact Chaos to fix it? My original display name is Elementalist.

@Chaos we need you.

Oh, you PMed me. That's right. 

I'm sorry for the delay; I've been very busy. I've fixed this and merged your accounts.
