This code fix that logged everyone out

Seems to have screwed up my username here.

I am bromyaur, been a member for a year.

When I try to log in with that username I get a invalid password error.(I know its the right password)

So I request my password in the password recovery form, I get the email click the link, then go and try and log in with the new password sent to me and it says invalid username/pass.It will not accept the new password sent to me.

"Wrong username or password. You have used up your failed login quota! Please wait 15 minutes before trying again. Don't forget that the password is case sensitive. Forgotten your password? Click here..."


Now had to wait for my 15 minutes to pass to I can try and log in again.....

"bromyaur,

Your account on vBulletin Community Forum has been locked because someone has
tried to log into the account with the wrong password more than 5 times. You
will be able to attempt to log in again in another 15 minutes.

The person trying to log into your account had the following IP address":

ok, now the new password sent to me works....

I am myself again

thanks for all your help

It was most likely a temporary glitch caused by the upgrading of security in vBulletin 3.0. You might have tried to log in before your user account was updated.

ahh, at least it's fixed now.
