    Hey Pete, long time no see, Caliptor sent me an e-mail pertaining to this & said the user name was id10t, did a search in the ACP & it found nothing, sent him an e-mail back requesting more specific info on his friend. BJ

    Hi BJ. I received an email from Hotmail telling me my account was too large. So I guess I've joined this email tag business to. I have cleaned out my HM Inbox so I can receive emails again through Hotmail.

    Tag! You're it!

    Hi BJ. id10t received an email to have his password reset. He says he can log in but when he tries to post he gets the following message:

    Hey BJ

    I noticed a 'Newest member' listing within the last day or so with a user name of id10t. It stuck because I remember thinking at the time that only an IDIOT would use a name like that. Obviously part of the registration worked OK. BF
