I have been slumlord44 forever. Could not sign in a couple of days ago. Kept telling me I had the wrong username. Somehow got back  in and now my username is slumlord444. Had to use Slumlord444 on Ebay because 44 was in use. I am prety sure that is the only place I used 444. Am I having brain fade or did the system somehow do this?

Maybe brain fade?  I looked up Slumlord44 and that username hasn’t been logged in since Nov 9, 2007 with no posts and only six visits prior to 11/9/07.  Slumlord444 has a total of 206 posts in 348 visits since then.  Because you only need your email address and a password to log in and not your username, I suspect you had forgotten you were using Slumlord444 rather than Slumlord44.  As long as you're in now, then I all should be good.

I used to be Y Block Bill, but when they upgraded the site in 2006 or sometime, I could not log in as Y Block Bill and had to change to Y Block Billy, Lost all my status and senority, had to start back as a newbie.

Ted, I am relatively new to the Forum. Is there a Tutorial (like the one for posting photos) that explains the is and outs of sending email (on this site) and PM etc. Thanks

The only specific tutorial or help is for picture posting which is at the top of this forum section.  That one you've seen.  There have been no other tutorials put in place and part of that is due to the variety of different operation systems that are out there and those systems all interfacing with this site on different levels.  If you have some specific problems, just post them in This-N-That and you'll get some tips from those that have had to work through similar problems.

As long as I can get in all is good. Brain fade comes with age.
