Have to keep re-registering account.

[koba]

Hello,

I am new to this forum and have just re-registered my account for the fourth time. For some reason, after I finish my session and try to log on again later I get a message telling me my user name does not exist.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

It is possible you were considered spam and removed for that reason. Now we know you are not spam, welcome to these forums.

Thank you very much. I’ve been reading this site for years now and have always thought about registering and posting.

The same keeps happening to me.  Can you please add me to the “not spam” list as well?

Many thanks.

Ok you in.

Just wanted to say I needed to re-register 3 times as well so far.  Each time trying to log in after (or after times out) I get a “user account does not exist” error message.

Posting here to help the admins track down the bug.

I am no spam  :mrgreen:

Great Forum - thanks for running it

Same thing is happening to me. I promise I am not a spam-bot!

OK but question: How did you come up with that name?

A spam usually strings together a word and random string of numbers to circumvent requirement ( in case it is required) that new names contain both letters and numbers.

What is the point of 1012?

Because saint is nearly always taken. Rather than use a random number, 1012 is the month and day of my DOB.
