[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1751438, member: 204485"] This is an extremely annoying, unnecessary and poorly managed arrangement. Why can't we at least receive a notification, prompt or popup on the home site to take us to the reset page. It's obvious that many people, including myself have had trouble resetting their passwords from time to time. Given that it is a time consuming inconvenience the least we should expect is a "your password has expired" message when trying to login. Are we all expected to set a calendar event to remind us? In my case I often open the page via an email notification of a thread I'm following and my password manager enters my password only to be told I have entered the wrong password. Usually that means I try again, now having used up 2 of my 5 attempts already I'm faced with creating a new password. No email with a "Reset Password" link. It usually takes two attempts to reset and sometimes more leaving me locked out for 15 min. All I'm saying here is if it must be done (and this is the only site I visit where it is required) the least that could be done is to make it a little easier. [/QUOTE]
