Having a case of "forgot my posting name".
There's so many levels of names... one for login, one for the forum, and one for my in game avatar. I'm confused. Just posting to see my forum name. b:shocked

    And now I know why I was having trouble remembering my name. I was searching for MY posts trying to find discussions I was having, and not finding any, I was thinking I had my name wrong. Turns out that wasn't the case. it seems ALL my posts have been deleted. Looks good on the moderators to selectively delete people's posts. Oh well. Back to updating the game... since the only time I hit the forums is when I'm d/l'ing a big update... getting a bit much with the updates. Dem's da breaks.

    That was very peachy "presidential speech" but i guess mod's or GM's should lock this irrelevant topic.

    I've got to agree with the little wizard. Developers are supposed to make things simplier and easier instead of the very opposite. Why can't PW just skip the nullsense and make character name=login=account name?

    If you're willing to join another online game, do NOT join any game hosted by K2 NETWORK. Wanna know why? See BBB complaints.

    Having the login name anywhere else but login is a big no no from a security perspective, as a security professional I'm glad they do it this way. I'd hate to see how many players have super easy passwords that could be cracked in no time with a simple dictionary attack. Giving the crackers the login name would mean lots of "OMGZ I has been haxx0red" from people who have weak passwords.

    BTW, no (or very few) posts are ever deleted completely. The bad ones will still exist but just have text saying "[removed due to forums rules/flamebait/etc]"

    Oh btw.

    Theres only two names that you have to know:
    - Username (This is different than your ign for ALMOST EVERY online)
    - Your forum name and your in game name are the same (except with some weird cases of caps/lowercase on some letters). For every in game character you get, you get another forum name. This can be changed by clicking the avatar near the top right corner of the forums.

    If you cannot find your old posts click your avatar and check your other characters for posts.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.
