Hi
I have had to re-register because I cannot log in with my original details from a couple of years ago. When I try it says "You exceeded the maximum allowed number of login attempts" - this is after ONE log in attempt! So the maximum number of allowed log in attempts must therefore be zero.
What's gone wrong? I would prefer to use my original account. Is there anything I can do?
Thanks

Sending you an email
After you see the "You have exceeded the maximum attempts etc etc" there should be an option to try again with a "Captcha" code. I believe this is a security measure to stop the forum being swamped by automatic registering. This would probably account for the maximum attempts to log on being used used up too.

I get that too sometimes, I think there is a few minutes delay from someone logging off or being logged off.vettepilot_6 wrote:strangely though it said I was already online???

Who can help me. My e-mail does not work on here as it is old and expired and I cannot recall my password so...can anyone tell me how to change both. Usually they would e-mail a new password to your e-mail address.
