So what's the warning message below my signature column and why can't I find a help file to explain what that is?

Thanks,
Salty

Send a PM to Greg or Warren with a new password for your old account and I'm sure they can fix things up for you.

Done that, but it was so boring to just sit here twiddling my thumbs without having access to PF.

And here I was thinking 'arildno2' was the answer to Lisa!'s "guess which PFer she was going to masquerade as".

Forgot your password ... Geez, what a dweeb! How could you forget your password just between yesterday and today?!

I've been working outside my office for a few weeks, stopping back just to check my E-Mails and a few other things. Naturally, in the middle of this my password expires and I have to change it, then forgot it by next week when I went to check the office again (but at least it was a whole week!). Lucky for me, the logon window has a button to click if you've forgtotten your password.

Step one to obtaining your forgotten password? Register using your username and password! What??! If I knew my password, I wouldn't be on this page!

Presumably, if you enter your password, the network will E-Mail your forgotten password to the E-Mail account that you can't access unless you know your password. Entirely consistent with the LAN administrator motto, "Leave Me Alone!"
 
Too bad arildno didn't use arildno* (his complex conjuagte) or arildno!

Since I've used the "Remember Me?" option, I haven't needed to remember my own password for about 3 months...

Surely he's already quite complex enough! And how does one 'conjugate' 'arildno'? Differently in Norwegian than Latin?? Let's see now, amo/arildno, ...

Right now, sexless* marriages are discussed here in Norway. Some are for it, and predictably, the Christians are against it.
So, I might get to know conjugal bliss after all..





*Gender neutral is perhaps a more apt term..

!arildno! , @rildn0 , arildn0 are also better than arildno2. But I just prefer arildno.

"Arildno*" would be okay, but I believe that Lisa has a copyright on "!".

Hm, I think that would instead be a trademark. (Just seizing the opportunity to harass you while you're unarmed. :-p )
