So I received this automatic email from the forum software;

 

Dear stormclock,

The person trying to log into your account had the following IP address: 117.175.34.47

That doesn't sound good, have you notified one of the mods or Admin?

That's on RWI.

This is RWG.

Talk to the administrator over at RWI. He'll see that the correct steps are taken to resolve your issue.

Jeez, it's my account from the black forum. I made I mistake because I have the same nick in all rep forums.

 

I'm going to contact the admin.

 

Thanks mates

Eh, no. PM a Mod on RWI would be the correct action....

Agreed but it sounds like he is getting locked out for periods of time. He may not be able to sign in there....

Well, I think I should have PM'd here because he's online here but not there :)

 

Someday forums will merge, won't they?

This is a bot from Beijing. Just be sure to use a long password. It only has 5 tries to guess your pass. When it fails all of them, the forum blocks your account for 15 minutes.
