"If you wish to participate..."
Posted by lionelsoni on Saturday, August 2, 2008 8:09 AM

Usually, when get this announcement, on a yellow background:

Trains.com forums are FREE. If you wish to participate you must LOGIN | REGISTER.

the forum makes me log in.  This seems to happen every few months.  But today I'm seeing it and the forum nevertheless seems to recognize me.  Is anyone else experiencing this?

Yes, Bob.  I noticed it right off.  Then saw, "Weclome back ChiefEagles."  Sure is funny.  I'll copy this thread and email Bob K at home.  Funny quirk.

PS: maybe another "free" weekend.

Me too - I logged in, it allowed account access, but not access to the forum (both should have been allowed).

So I ended up changing my password and all is well.

Strange.

It rejected my login attempts last night and early this morning. Fine this afternoon.

I have it too, but it doesn't restrict me, like it does when I purge my cookies.

That didn't sound right....but you know what I mean.

WOW!!! I think I am finally been able to post.  The Trains.com website made me log in, then it wanted me to change my password, which I didn't do, then it wanted me to change my profile.

The only thing it didn't ask me to do was send money to Nigeria, Kenya, Sudan, Sweden, or California.

Then why did it ask me to send money to Roger's Corners?
