Good to be back

SkyMan · November 19, 2019 3:37PM

Who here started, if not hyperventilating, at least getting rather nervous, when their old password got dumped in the last few days and they couldn't log in? I don't know how it all worked for you guys, but when I entered the input your email webpage, clicked the "send a new password" link, and got a resounding nothing sent to me, I got rather nervous. Suffice it to say, I was able to contact Mark, and he was able to send me a temporary password. I'd like to thank him for his help.

It's good to be back with the rest of my coin geek brothers and sisters!!!

Post something numismatic to show that you're glad to be back with your coin geek community!

Me too!

I just wanted to give a big thanks to Heather who helped me out as my old email was still in the PCGS system so this bogged things up on my end.

Heather is very friendly, courteous and extremely competent.

I, too, was locked out until today. Here's an old friend:

airplanenut, I have one of those too. I found mine in a batch of world coins that I paid next to nothing for.

I was locked out also for a couple of days.

Interesting how an interruption of one's routine (i.e. checking for forums multiple times each day to keep up with hobby goings on) can be a cause of consternation.

Took me four tries to get back in.

Bad timing. Not being able to get into PMs when there are multiple deals going could be stressful.

PipestonePete · November 19, 2019 5:21PM

I didn't get back in until just a couple of hours ago. thanks go out to Heather and Mark. Thought Skyman might like a space related item so here is my page from Jim Lovell's Apollo 8 lunar mission flight manual.

I was using the wrong email address associated with my username all weekend. Then finally figured it out, thought I was banned or something. All is good.

I also just got logged in yesterday with the help of Heather, Marlene and Mark.

It should make us all really appreciate the privilege of being a part of these PCGS Forums.

Thank you Heather, Marlene, Mark and PCGS.

I love this place!

bolivarshagnasty · November 19, 2019 6:47PM

Ditto here.

Welcome back @SkyMan!

Went through the same.

bearcave · November 19, 2019 7:04PM

I just logged back in a couple days ago to have mine took out. Since I didn't have the same email as I did in 2003, it did no good to reset the password. I sent Heather an email and she forwarded it to Mark who set me back up. Thank you Mark!! Its good to be back, I have been here awhile lurking but decided to get in with both feet. My avatar is the first coin I bought back. I always loved the old green rattlers!

oldabeintx · November 19, 2019 7:20PM

On the 4th try I ignored the prefill and entered my email address. Not sure if it mattered but seemed to do the trick.

Lakesammman · November 20, 2019 6:44PM

Hmmmmm....pretty painless here.

coinsarefun · November 20, 2019 6:49PM

My newest pickup soon to get graded by PCGS.

'twas Heather that sent me the temp pword when nothing would arrive at my email. Thanks!

SkyMan, some here may have thought you were jettisoned to the Moon, and left no forwarding address.

jessewvu · November 20, 2019 8:22PM

Email went to junk and tagged as suspicious.

Verified server was valid, and East day after that

While I realize you were commenting on me in my normal mode as being a space cadet (in oh so many ways ), actually, I HAVE been dealing with a lingering flu. I had been planning to do a ten day, "Fifty years ago today" this week as it is the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 12 mission. It would have been extensive, so it's not really a good thing to do when one's head feels like it's filled with cotton. Maybe I'll do a "Fifty years ago (and a bit)" ten day thread later this year, or just after New Years, when things slow down around here...

Sorry to hear of your illness. Do get well. I for one will be looking forward to your "50 years ago today" post. I like your space related contributions.
