There may be something wonky with the password reset, as well. As a panic reaction, I reset my password through the client, but never received an email. I then went through NCMA, and it still accepted my original GW password for resetting purposes, so it seems the ingame reset button did nothing.

Whatever this bug is, it seems to only affect the in-game login form. I am having no problems logging in using the command-line switches (-email, -password, -character).

Do not lose hope, ArenaNet will win against the god of gods, Shadow Form.

if that were the case GW would have exploded long ago with all the complaints about the XTH and various other things. though it does sound like something my parents would have done when i was a kid... generally speaking of course.

Probably shouldn't change your passwords until they get this figured out. It could hork it more. BTW...... What am I supposed to do now? I am bored.

yeah, my first response was to change my password and once i had done that and it still wouldn't let me log in I suspected there were other issues. And low and behold there are already 435463456 threads about it.
