The Pikers Pit

update: 31/03/2014

the problem has been narrowed down a bit more and it seems to be because you have requested a new password and the email was never sent, keep in mind though that emails from the forum can take up to an hour to be sent. try again or email me at the address below.


I see members get this problem now and again.

A message states:

You exceeded the maximum allowed number of login attempts. In addition to your username and password you now also have to solve the CAPTCHA below.

you must:

1. enter your username and password
2. answer the question.
3. click login

please have a look at the image I have uploaded:
If this still does not work please email me at andrew.croft@tacklesack.co.uk quoting your username and ONLY using the email address that you used to register your pikers pit account.

I will not respond to emails if the username and email address do not match to prevent trickery to obtain access to someones account.

Regards,

Andy

Thanks for your help Andrew.......

Nice one Andrew, this issue caused me a right nightmare a few weeks ago mate.

Andrew,

Any idea why suddenly I have to log in every time I look at the forum on my iPhone?

may be a small issue with the way the iphone saved cookies to the device. try clearing your cookies, it will clear all cookies so will clear all other"remembered logins".

are you also sure you checked the "remember password" box before clicking the login button.

Also had this problem Andy, tried recovering my password but said my username or password wasn't recognised so tried registering with my old username to be told that username was in use. Just had to register another account.

thansk for helping me test Gary seems ive finally got this thing sorted.

at least now if anyone gets the exceeded logins the catcha thing will work woohoo

thanks to Nev (and Gary) of all people Im fairly certain I know whats going on now. you have requested a new password (password reset) and never got the email from the forum with the new password it has sent. This is why it keeps asking for the Captcha again.

I think if anyone has ever slagged off Nev for his computing skills should now apologise profusely

This happened to me but Ben the boss man sorted it for me
Cheers Ben

Hi Andrew,
I cannot log in from my new computer due to the same problem as in your original statement ( does not recognise my password / username). The only way I can send this email is by going back on my old computer that allows me access with my usual username and password. I have followed your original suggestion for exceeding log on attemps to gain access but still it will not let me in. I have also followed " I forgot my password " but have had no reply from your system.

Any further suggestions ?

Regards Neil

I have reset the login attempts warning so you shouldnt get one again unless you enter the password wrong 3 times. have you forgotten your password ? check the spam folder for the password reset link.

Hi Andrew,
Many thanks for your help . Now back on line with new computer

Regards Neil

Brian Harrison has been locked out and tried your email

Ill sort that the now

trying to get him on facebook, nae answer. tell him he can have a go at requesting a new password ive cleared the login attempts.

email he used is a *****8@yahoor.**** one if thats the one he still uses as this is where the change of password request will be sent. if not ill have a word with him on FB

I have had to reregister because I kept getting unable to login.
I have forgotten/ cancelled my original email address ( due to it being compromised)

Is there any way of getting my previous post number 586 back.

Your help in the above will be very much appreciated.

I have reset the login attempts you can try your password again for the account: angelshark

Thanks Andrew.

Just tried it again and it’s not working. Is there anything else we can try??

Is it possible to send me all my details to either of the following addresss :-

anthorn105@hotmail.com
tdi47@yahoo.co.uk
Or any other I might have registered to me.

Sorry to be a pain in the backside but I prefer the angelshark username.

Your help in the above will be very much appreciated..

dude you have like 3 other accounts you lost, if you are who you say you are, I cant confirm that and give you access to other accounts. try and stick to one.

Ok. Can I have the angelshark one back. I’ll cancel the remainder.
The reason I have 3 accounts is because I have had repeated problems with the site. I keep getting the red statement that I have exceeded my login attempts.
Obviously there is still something wrong with the site settings.
