Re: Problem / Question

First, I feel like an idiot. I've been here since the Andy Baldwin season of TB and never saw this. It might have saved me last week's agony.

Until a couple of weeks ago, I had dial-up. When we switched and I tried to using the broadband, FORT wouldn't recognize me. I wanted to keep my same screen name and number of posts and didn't want to switch that. I tried emailing the Contact Us without response and asked all the veteran posters I could think of. A couple of mods, too. One vet. suggested I try clearing all my cookies and internet history. When I did that, FORT wouldn't recognize my log-in from EITHER dial-up or broadband.

In desperation to use the PM function to retrieve some information I'd left in my PMs, I re-registered with the current name shown here. But I've had to start all over with posts, etc.

Is there ANY way I can go back to being TigerPrideMom and retrieving my posts? I would do penance, use an "I'm an Idiot" signature line, whatever is deemed appropriate? I'd even on a regular basis. Please oh please?

You're not an idiot, that sort of thing happens and since the site email function hasn't been working, it's really been a problem. Take care to remember your passwords, everyone!

Re: Problem / Question

Hi, I have a question, I used to be carolinamom12. And my husband was on the computer and he cleared our cookies and since then I was not able to log on. I forgot my password and requested it but I never recieved the e-mail. So I had to get a new username and password, And I had alot of posts. I was just wondering if somehow I could get my old username back? If not I understand. I should have wrote the password down.

HELP!

Your annoying Netfilx pop-up has gone crazy! It throws a new ad up in front of me with every click of the mouse.

Make it stop . . . . please!!!

In Firefox, there is an add-on called NoScript. I was having this popup too, but in the Netflix window I clicked on the NoScript icon and made it "untrusted." It's been gone ever since. I don't know if you have Firefox, but if you do, google for NoScript.
