Has there been a change to the password rules since I registered? I have had the same password since day one and have been logged in since then. When I tried to send Erik an email this morning I got the following error....
"Your password needs to have between 6 and 15 characters. It needs at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, and one digit."
While this is a perfectly valid check to make, I would rather it was during logon, or a PM to be sent to everyone whose password doesn't comply. Or maybe a general announcement in the newsletter that the rules are there for our security, asking people to change their passwords.
At the minute I can post and send PM's with no problems, so could this check be removed from the email link (or added to posting and PM's as well)? I'm guessing that there are probably a lot of people who will have the same problem and not know it.
I tested again by trying to send an email to Schik, but got the same error.
Steve. (off to change my password now)
