I can't log-in to MetaFilter

July 3, 2005 4:25 AM

I can't log-in to MetaFilter. I am sure of my username and password, but they aren't working. I've tried deleting cookies. I probably haven't helped matters by obfuscating the email address in my profile so I can't have my password emailed to me. Assuming I haven't been banned, please help!

"I've tried deleting cookies."

You seem to have misspelled "emailing Matt."

How will Matt know it's really nthdegx if his email can't be confirmed?

I take it back. His email's not really obfuscated, like the post claims, just spam-protected.

There's no automated password retreval so it doesn't matter if your email is correct or not. Email matt and tell him the situation.
