Quote:Your password is the same as your username. This is no longer allowed.
Please change your password using this page.
Also with this in place what’s with the 5 chances to login, couldn’t this be raised to like 20 for the people who never log in here and can’t remember a password that’s not their username?
Thanks for sharing your old password?
Anyways I don’t agree with raising that limit as it just goes along with any other site even Yahoo! and Google have small limits.
If you forget your password there is a Forgot Password option! It’s helpful – use it.

Get over it. You seem to have logged in just fine.
Because my password was my username, and it was my 4th guess as my regular throwaway passwords like password, the letter a, and 12345 weren’t the passwords, and this new system doesn’t even let me use those old passwords

Not sure about yahoo, but google has no limit, but those sites have password breakin attempts, if I’ve had this password for over 6 years and haven’t lost my account, it’s fighting a problem that doesn’t exist
The forgot password doesn’t do anything after you’ve already locked out your account
I can see your next post already:
Help my yahoo and google account have been stolen, why did I not set up a more secure password!! 😀
Sorry to make light of your problem eedok, but this is part of being on line in my book. Hey you should try working where I do, we have to update passwords on the the main system once a month (and you are not allowed to use the same one twice). And on two other systems every so often as well…. grrr
Sigh, its a pain in the bum I know 😉
