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?
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.

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.

Ask Blue Butterfly to redo your account I suppose?
