    Danny,
    Sorry to post here, but I am not getting any help from sent messages.....
    I cannot log on the site as my usual, User ID of SilverSurfer.
    I get all types of messages from "You need to register"-to-"You are not authorized to view this board"-to-"password not valid". I requested a new password but did not recieve any response. I also sent various "help me" emails form all of those error messages, with no response.
    I then had to re-register with this name of Greywolf to get back on the board.
    I had to use a different email address for this too because it said my other one was already being used by a member "silverSurfer", Which is of course me.
    I would like to continue using my ID of Silversurfer.
    I just tried logging on again with it and still get the mesaages. Please help me with this problem
    Thank-you

    This post belongs in the PriusChat Website Questions forum. However, sometimes the site is down, and gives all sorts of error messages (including the "You don't have permission to view this board" message). Then you just have to wait until later. This board has more of that kind of problem than some others, but the content makes it worth trying again later.

    Danny does reply to messages, but be patient, as he has a real job also.

    Danny,
    I originally posted this in the wrong place (Prius main forum) but daniel set me straight, I am not getting any help from sent messages.....

    Grey/Silver Wolf/Surfer,
    I've reset your password. I'm not sure if that will help.
    The new password is "Hybrid".

    Just kidding.

    I'll send the new information to your ORIGINAL email on file. The one you registered SilverSurfer with. I thought the new password was rather clever on my part if I say so myself.

    This is Tony testing the new login password. Seems to work.

    I'll send the password now.
    Hope it works for you.

    Tony,
    I never received the password.

    Thanks,

    Jim,
    Check your messages. I sent a PM with the password.
    Actually, I sent it from the Silver Surfer account.

    Glad it worked out.

    It didn't help that apparently there's a SilverSurfer and a Silver Surfer (with a space).

    Make sure you change your password to something else. The reason you didn't get the first email might be because I sent it to the other Surfer. I'm not saying for sure, but I'm expecting a confused reply from someone who got a really random email yesterday. ;)

    Sorry for jumping in this one late, but I actually replied this weekend after receiving your emails. I also reset your password, but I guess you didn't get my reply.

    Looks like Tony took care of you.

    Danny I have also had the exact same problems. I had to create a new user ID with a secondary mailbox. However, I never got the activation email so I was still not fully into the forum as I could not post. I finally posted on the Priusonline forum and a very helpful person was able to contact an administrator on this forum who activated my secondary account. Is there any way I can get back my original log in as the new email address I had to use was my wifes and she is using her own computer? I tried mutiple times to contact you as well as trying the lost password link. Never got a response. Thank you.
