So I forgot my password yesterday and got an email to reset it. When I logged in via the email link I logged in with my username Jack the Stripper and new password. When I tried to log in again a few hours later it wasn't accepting my username so I tried jack the tripper which was my original username and that worked ?

Also, I've noticed if you tilt your phone sideways the forum is much better to view, or views how it should be instead of getting two words per line.

Yes you need to remember that the name you registered with is your username, the name visible is your screenname. The Username cannot be changed afterwards.

Yeah I realise that but the oddity was I was able to log in(when I had to create a new password) with my current screen name.

Well that is interesting...I guess it can accept both then or maybe it was just a glitch...can't say...but the main thing is that you got in again.

Mustve been a glitch because when I tried to log in again a few hour later with my current screen name it didn't work.

It's true, the screen name != user name, so we have to be mindful of both.

As for phone viewing, I use Tapatalk. It does strip out most of the images and smileys, but it also gets me the text I want to see in the threads.

One tip: stop forgetting your passwords... :laugh:

Have been meaning to ask since the birth of this place about the level of seating on each members profile. Does your level of seating change the more you've posted?

I'm in the nose bleed seats...

Is it possible to get to pit or snake pit level? 

[Charger]

Yes the level changes with the ammount of posts.

[Zzzptm]

In about a dozen more, I get to go up a level.

[Jack the Stripper]

What's the highest level? VIP Guest?

I was on another forum once where anyone with over 1000 posts had the rank "post whore".

I got an award for hitting that rank the fastest.

Any suggestions for more Heal/Hurt games when Zeppelin and Metallica is done, to make "official" Community rankings?

The "general albums" can ofcourse keep going endlessly.

Z, i guess you'd like a Purple game, but i don't know how to divide that mess into eras... '68-'69/'70-'73/'74-'75/'84-'93/'96-'17? Lump the Bolin and Turner albums in with the Evans albums as "other eras"? I think there should be a divide between the 70's mk II and 80's/90's mk II atleast.

Other obvious suggestions:
Ozzy solo
Dio solo
Iron Maiden?
Motörhead?

Atleast it should be bands with a sizeable discography. As fun as it would be to do Guns N' Roses and Nirvana, that would be very quick games.

Got an idea for another Sabbath-related list/game too, but that'll have to wait for later...
