So, I'm a member on this Swedish video game forum, and now I'm trying to log in.
The problem is, I use the Swedish letter "ö" in my password, and the computer obviously doesn't grant this anymore: it used to do, but now it says "not a valid string of letters" an crap.
I've pretended to have forgotten my password as well, hoping that they would send me another one, but they just sent me my old password.
Wha the hell is this?
Go to Start, programs, accessories, system tools and character map.
Select System as the branch of font you want to use, and find that letter.
The strange part about this is that the site actually lets me log in as long as I haven't ordered a game!
I'm trying to order a game right now, and whenever I wanna log in and pay for it, the computer goes on about the string of letters thing.
NO ORDER = "Welcome. Peter"
ORDER = "not a valid string of letters" etc.
The site obviously doesn't want me to order a game. :eep:
Does it allow you to log in first, then purchase a game?
If it doesn't, log in normally, change your password to something that doesn't involve that character, or any others like it. Then, attempt to purchase the game.
No.Quote:

Agreed. Change your password so that you don't have to deal with this problem anymore.Quote:

If it uses vBulletin it should have an edit profile link somewhere. Click it, it should have an edit password button or link.
Yay, it worked! :D
I changed that letter for an "o" instead, and then I could log in!
Thank you. :)
