      Norm, you should vote no. I know you didn't because after I did, it only showed one vote for "NO".

        I think he wants to know if at first you couldn’t log in...?

              Being one of the "old dogs" on here, I must admit to not liking change. Maybe it was necessary but it screwed up my night last night and also my earlier tries today.

                  Yep, had to reset my password also, no big deal for me though as I hadn't changed it in a while anyway.

                    Used the forgot password and reset my password. All good!!!

                      I was able to log in but had to ask for a new password. Once I got in I changed my password back to the old one.

                        Could not logg in all afternoon. Could see that was no activity, no new posting.
                        (I figured it was something related to Frank processing all the new contribution status.)
                        THen this evening I noticed there was some activity, but I still could not logg in.
                        So I went thru the password reset process, and now can logg in.......

                          Frank,

                          Thanks for all you do.

                          I suppose you are trying to find how wide spread this was.
                          If was each and every member could not logg in, or if it just effected those who had their contribution status updated.

                          My observation was that I could not log in (invalid password, it said), and there was no new postings all afternoon. So that gave me the idea that nobody was able to logg in. I looked a few times at "todays postings" and it had the same posting on the top with same poster and time, and other postings listed there seemed to be in same order.
                          Was not till early evening (eastern) that I noticed a few new postings, but I still could not logg in, untill I reset my password.

                          Perhaps this poll is not conclusive if folks are misunderstanding the question. At the moment have 21 responses (7 no, 14 yes) but only a few have posted a comment explaining themselves.


                          Perhaps you have some activity report of which members had to reset their password during specific hours yesterday, maybe something like that could be available somehow.

                          Thanks again for all you do. This event somewhat shows how you have to do things behind the scenes that we are not aware of.

                            I didn't have to reset my password, but for the first time in years I was asked to type in my name and password. Happened maybe three times, then back to normal. Phew!

                            Happened a few days ago.

                              For the last 6 months or so I have to enter the password every time I login. It always goes to an error message about validation too but it does login...

                              And yep I couldn't get in until I reset my password (or actually even after I reset my passwork, it still wouldn't let me login for a couple of hours).
