Two days in a row now I've had to go through the whole re-establishing my screen name and password (wait for a new password and change it). Why did the first not take? Is anyone else having this problem of having to repeatedly re-registering and changing passwords?

More than likely you were just entering in your password incorrectly. If you got in the first time, that's all you needed. It wouldn't just reset your password again out of the blue.

i just deleted all of my PM's like 2-3 weeks ago. I had 2 in my inbox, 0 in my sent folder and 0 in my trash can. and when we got to the new software I had to delete them all again because i had too many and couldn't receive anymore. anyone else have this issue?

As did I.

Chiefs, did your PM folder get bumped down to like 50 max, too? I had like 78/50 when the switch happened. I know when I got moved from user to mod, my PM file was made much larger to the point where I could have stored a few hundred or so.

Same here. In fact my IM's doubled up. It also showed several NEW IM's that I had already read. I'm thinking it might have been caused by the Beta testing.

My Crackberry seems to be handling this well, without any apps. When I get on a real computer, it's smooth sailing!

I have already had to log in six times today. Why does it keep logging me out?

Make sure you click on the 'Remember me?' box before you log in.

You either aren't clicking the Remember me box or it is a browser issue.

You beat me to it, I was going to say make sure the browser isn't clearing cookies/history after it is closed each time.

As for the PMs, yeah, apparently it just kept every PM ever sent and then set them all to unread. I had over 1000 unread once the switch happened. :)

You mean animated ones?

I know you can use a gif, but people trying to use animated ones have been bitching that they aren't animating.

It's a filesize issue. The gif needs to be smaller than 25Kb.
