We are currently experiencing some technical difficulties affecting the ability for certain users to login. I am currently investigating the issues and hope to have the boards back to normal soon.
Update: The login issues have now been temporarily resolved by fixing a problem with the recaptcha authorization.
We are also investigating the possibility of an automated attack on the forums attempting to guess user passwords.
As a general reminder, it is always a good policy to use strong passwords and, in general, one should avoid reusing passwords across multiple sites. A strong password should be at least 6-8 characters long and include a mixture of lowercase, uppercase, number, and/or special characters.
