Re: Attaching your WCG to BAM!

Wrong end? Did you try with just the last 15?

Had not thought of that. Just tried the last 15 and it does not work. Kept trying different amounts leaving off characters from the beginning and nothing works except the full password. When I type the full password, hit home on the keyboard, then use the right arrow key to count the number of dots it is exactly the length of my password so it is not limited to 15 when logging in. Maybe just for new members on the Username/Password creation page?

Edit: for grammar

Re: Attaching your WCG to BAM!

I don't know when we added the 15 character limit (being gone for 15 months kind've removed a lot of my memory of what went on before). We don't impose a limit on the length of the password you enter to login with - the limit is only applied when you change your password and when you register. So if you had a password longer than 15 characters before we added the limit, the longer password will still work just fine.
