Login issues

Well shit, I had all the users and correct password migrated over, but then a (highly recommended) phpBB upgrade did another conversion on the passwords which pretty much fucked them up.

If you cannot login due to the following error and your email address you used during initial registration in the last seven years is no longer valid, or you can't remember the email address:

tarded phpBB software wrote:It was not possible to convert your password when updating this bulletin board’s software. Please request a new password. If you continue to have problems please contact the Board Administrator.


Then your only recourse is to have an admin change your password manually, or update the email that you registered with.

You should first check chat to see if somebody in there can do it, follow this link:

If that doesn't work, send an email to slabdyno -AT- gmail.com and politely ask criz to change your password or email address.

I am working on getting the passwords restored so that this isn't a issue, but it's going to take time.

The password fix has been put into place. Thanks to blimp's SQL skills, the old passwords were restored.

You should be able to login with your old username/password, but it's possible that not all passwords were able to be converted (such as passwords that contained non-UTF8 characters) - in that case, follow the instructions above.

Who cares. People like that sad, sad man aren't worth any effort whatsoever.

TLDR, move on.

Sadman! like as in a superhero! i get it!

he disables bad guys by telling them these sad (but hilarious to the audience) stories and they get darker and deeper as he speaks and they start to cry and such..

dude, my mind is a swirling atmosphere of ideas and creative imaginative molecules.

There is a definite login issue that should be resolved.

WB can still login.
