How do I change my password now that the new system is in effect?
I was given password to sign in because I forgot my last password. I signed in under the new password you gave me-it was 4 nimbers and 4 letters. When I went to change it to my password it said that the password I gave was invalid. YOU gave it me via email! How do I set my new password and can I start a new forum not related to Days?Red,
When you sign in, the system sets both cookies and sessions which store an encrypted password. When you change your password on the site, it's supposed to update both cookie and session but if -- for some unknown reason -- it can't, it'll ask you to log in again using the new password so that it can store it correctly.

Am betting that if you shut your computer down, restart it and come here again, you will be able to change your password easily.
Only administration can create new forums.
You can begin a thread on a subject other than Days, tho, in the Daze & Knights forum.
Hope this helps.
I think I am now good. I just signed in successfully. Thank you.I really don't know what to say, except to verify that the forgot password and change functions do work. I just verified it using a test account. Not sure what's going on here, especially since you're both logged in, but if you will e-mail me from the account on record and let me know what you would like it set to and I'll be happy to take care of it for you.
