Unregistered	I just arrived at the forum a few minutes ago to find that: (a) the forum has been redesigned and has a rather ugly advert across the top, though this is not such a big proble when compared with (b) I have been logged off and my cookies appear to have been deleted, so I don't know which topics I have already read, and of course (c) I can't log back on again! Help! When I press "log on" it continues to display me as a guest, though I appear on the active users list as having tried to log on. If I type my name or password wrong, I know I have because it comes up with an error message, so I know that's not the problem. If Grabe has made any changes to the forum, PLEASE undo them! Otherwise, it may be a problem on my computer; I'll reboot at some point. Can someone help me?

Unregistered	Actually, it's more likely to be a problem with my computer; I've lost my cookies for other websites as well (Yoyo and GMC, though not YouTube). But this forum is the only one I can't log back into again. I'll reboot now.

Unregistered	Rebooting doesn't seem to have helped. Are you sure you haven't made any changes to the forum?

For the purposes of playing a certain Lab 14 fangame, I advanced my computer's clock by nine years and forgot to set it back. My computer automatically deletes certain files if they are not used for a given duration. I couldn't log back in because my computer time was no longer synchronised with the forum time, causing glitches (presumable it used the forum time as my login time, and then my computer noticed it had been logged in for nine years and logged out, or some such). As you can see, it's all fixed now. Could I just request that a mod or an admin change the subtitle of this topic to solved?

Local Moderator Posts: 547 Group: Local Moderator Member #5 Joined: August 27, 2008	I know, but I can't edit posts in this forum. I'm only a "Local Moderator", which presumably means I can't edit posts in the "Welcome" forum. Dunno what other posts I can edit. Anyway, topic closed.

2time_Competition_Winner Posts: 2,217 Group: Competition Winner Member #14 Joined: October 25, 2008	... well what I really was thinking about when asking the question was... snowyowl wrote a comment as a guest... and he can't edit it... is it like that for all guests' posts?
