Hello;
1)
I'm having login problems:
So I had to create a new account,
my usual username is vmars316 .
Problem is when you folks send me a new password to vmars316 ,
then when I try to login with it , it doesn't work .
I tried switching to another browser , and get same problem , can't log in with the new password .
What is the problem ?
How can this be fixed ?

2)
Also , I don't want to keep creating a new username each time .
The alternative to this is to contact administration .
Pls , what is the email address for support ?
Thanks

I did a forced reactivation of that user account so you should receive a message to the registered email account.

You don't need to be logged in to post in this particular forum. Just log on as a guest.

Nope still can't Login as vmars316 , only with vmarsxyz .
What password should I use .
Can you email me thru Forum ?

No , I can't access this forum without a password .

When I try to use guest it says:
The username you entered is already in use, please select an alternative.
You have provided an invalid answer to the question.

So what next ?

The password was changed to the part of the registered email address after the @ symbol, with "dot" used in place of the period. Try logging in again.

You exceeded the maximum allowed number of login attempts. In addition to your username and password you now also have to solve the CAPTCHA below.

When you make a post or thread while as a Guest in the mozillaZine Site Discussion you need to use a name that is not already in use by a registered forum account.

Also the How many letters in Mozilla answer is 6 as in M o z i l a = 6 as it is about the unique letters and not the combined total.
