Did you try to reset your password to verify you're using the correct one?   James H. Coppens Intermediate Member Username: Coppens1 Post Number: 129 Registered: 05-2006 Posted on Wednesday, June 23, 2010 - 03:13 pm:    I received the message that I was registered, but when I try to log in, I get an error message "You have entered an invalid username or password. Please press the back button, enter the correct details and try again. Don't forget that the password is case sensitive. Forgotten your password? Click here! You have used 5 out of 5 login attempts. After all 5 have been used, you will be unable to login for 15 minutes." the system doesn't ask me for a username or password, only gives the error message. What gives?   Linda Pelletier Member Username: Lphh6 Post Number: 42 Registered: 05-2008 Posted on Wednesday, June 23, 2010 - 09:41 am:    received confirmation email and activated my new account.

Allanach Advanced Member Username: Poppop Post Number: 212 Registered: 01-2006 Posted on Tuesday, June 22, 2010 - 04:38 pm:    Same issues. I get: "That username is already in use or does not meet the administrator's standards. If you are PopPop and you have forgotten your password, click here." When I try to use the same name I've been using for years. I have not forgotten my password. Help pls   John D.

I have clicked on the link to the new site. I do not get any of the categories I am looking for like "last category moved", "flight schedule", etc... I attempt the register and am told that I have entered an invalid username or password. I have probably tried this 6 or 7 times. I don't know what I am doing wrong.

The reason is because you have to do a NEW REGISTRATION for the new site. I had to start a new database with it because there are about 7,000 people that never activated their registration here. The process is really quite simple. I did it on my cell phone last night in about 4 minutes.
