Hey I'm quoting myself pretending to be someone else. Pretty neato eh?

This isn't Sven/Steve congratulating himself on a post is it?

Just kidding, it worked... but I don't understand what changed... Oh well, fingers crossed. Thanks for your help, Chet!

You're welcome. I suspect the problem came about as a glitch from the mass account deletion incident where you had to re-register and then be reunited with your old account. After I deleted the second account, the original was still a no-go so I changed your username and tried it again and logged on no problem. I then changed it back, tried logging in and it worked. So in summary, I have no idea how I fixed it. How's that for self congratulation!

I do remember something about the second account you created was kb58, while the old one was KB58. If I remember correctly, I changed the raw username field in the database table, because I didn't know there was a function to do that in the admin pages.

I'm not going to bother to speculate on how exactly that foobar'd the situation, but I'd bet a dollar that was the root of the problem.

Thanks for figuring this out and solving it, Chet!
