password?

Last night, when logging on to chess.com i was surprised that i was asked for my password. This was the first time i've been asked for my password for... probably a couple of years.

I noticed things going on around the site yesterday, I couldn't get onto Live Chess for a short period, and i noticed everyone got turfed off it too. There were also "bad gateway" messages coming through when trying to access forum topics at the same time.

Today i log in and it asks me for my password again. Is there something going on?

Also see "android app keeps telling me to login again" forum.

Thanks for that ka05, but i'm using a desktop pc, with win7, and i also checked the 'remember me' box...

What browser are you using?

google chrome

Have you tried clearing your browsing data through chrome to see if that helps?  We did do an update yesterday :) 

ok, i'll give that a try...

ok, did that, it asked me for my password once again, then the chrome thing dropped down from the top of the page asking if i wanted to save the password from the site. Now saved and logging in as normal...

Thanks Jac1yn

If I log into chrome using the remembered password it fails; if I manually enter the password it works; the remembered password fails next time; I'll have to change the remembered password to what it should already be so it works! Interesting ... not a problem though as I had already looked up the password to log into the android app.

Yes, Gambit-man, I took awhile to remember my password, but then I checked the "remember me" box, and it was just like before.

Remember me remembers your USERNAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOT YOUR PASS WORD

Sacred mtn; In my case, it remembers all of it. I'm on a pc with Google chrome. Take my word for it, please.

Jack, your profile pic is back, but it's stretched now. Like watching you on widescreen

Thanks for noticing, Gambit-man. I'm going to try out for the part of Ernest Borgnine in "McHale's Navy".
