Hi,
I'm new here, and so I am burdened with the password given to me by the registration process. However I am locked by the admins (according to the paragraph which comes up when I try to go into update my details) from changing it... Is this normal due to me being new here, or is this not supposed to be the case...
Any help would be appreciated. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

The locked password is the norm. And no, I could never remember it - but I solve the problem by never logging out.
(Alternatively/additionally I now have a little indexed notebook for all my passwords).

I don't know why your profile was locked. It was probably an oversight when your membership was approved.
I've now unlocked it so you should be OK to change your password.

You never told me! Not that it matters - I'd still have to write it down to remember it.

You access the ship on only one device, Firenze?! Well, I suppose all are welcome, even Luddites.

I have an uneasy idea that I probably have a login in Internet cafes from Maastricht to Vienna, Lisbon to Davos. But come the iPad, you can carry it about (while the poor PC sits there, rusting... )

Time was when to do otherwise was to attract hostly attention. I clearly remeber RuthW posting stern warnings to Tigglet and I forget who else who were logging in from multiple locations across the UK on some crazy Ship-inspired trip or other, on their newfangled "laptop"...

We can change our passwords? I've been here 10 years and never figured that out? ![[Hot and Hormonal]](icon_redface.gif) Where/how do we do that?

God ... and all these years I've been carrying my desktop around (well since the mainframe died), setting it up in cafes with extension leads ...

Wow really? I just changed all of my other passwords to be the same as my Ship one!
I wonder if it would have been simpler the other way around...

Long, long ago Frin gave me a password, it was so right for the Ship I have stuck with it ever since, including changing it back when I had to change my email account.

I'm impressed that so many of you know what your passwords are! I just stay logged on on the computers I use to post from, and whenever I get a new computer I have to just change the password of the other one (eg last time I got a new desktop, so changed my password via my laptop where I was logged on, then put the same new password in the desktop)... and then promptly forgot it.
When I use another device (eg occasionally at work) to access the Ship, I just have to read without posting as I don't know my password.

That is fantastic.
The other one was Soggy Amphibian, and it was the very first "Mad Tour". Boy, that brings back memories (including the moment where I a] had to explain to my father that I had two young men I knew only through the internet sleeping on my lounge floor and b] began to introduce them to him before I realised I didn't.. er... know their names!!)
