Apparently so. 🙂

I had changed mine right before the board went down. I almost didn’t remember it.

Why am i having to log in every time? Why is ATMB the only forum I can post in? The others keep telling me I’m not loggen in, even though it shows my user name at the top of the page as “logged in user”?

I’ve got Automatically Login When Return checked on. That may be the answer. I don’t have Browse With Cookies turned on, though.
