In Da Fashion of Mistah Killaz, I present:

"Sonar's ability to screw things up easily"

See? I'm setting up a wiki and finally, finally fixed all server errors.

Sooo... this means that I can log into the wiki and start setting things up, right? ;D

Only thing was:

1) I forgot what username I registered. I tend to use between 5 to 10 usernames.

2) I also forgot the password. Same for passwords.

3) It took many many tries before I could recall the username I'd used. When I tried to reset my password, no matter which email address I checked, I couldn't find the email. Again, I got a ton of email addresses.

4) Soo... I'm the admin of my web account and thus, I downloaded my wiki folder to check the user list.

5) Guess what happened? I must've been really tired that night 'cos I found out my email addy was set to noone@noone.com.

~~6) This means I gotta re-setup the wiki all over again.~~ Figured a way out, man.

Morale of the story: never set things up when you're dead tired. ;D

Yes, time to start testing wikis! I believe it was the same issue that caused Mediawiki to stop functioning too. Incidentally, I recall setting up wikis on my pc with LAMP and such a few years ago... hmm... I wonder why I couldn't remember anything about it. Alien abduction, perhaps? ;D

@ EK: Since I'm in a slightly mean and cheeky mood:

Heee heee heee!!! ;D

You all suck, I rule.

Hildor:

Yep... hmmmm... malicious thoughts forming:

Time to become a hacker, I guess? ;D

Just don't dwell on it, and take precautions in the future.

Hahaha! Excellently done! A masterful use of forgetfulness that rivals even me!

But anyhow, well done on figuring it out. ;D
That must have been all kinds of a major relief.

That's why I've started writing my accounts/passwords down in code in hidden pages of notepads and books.

(unfortunately I still sometimes forget what the hell my code means

)

LOL, that's happened to me a few times (on my sickbed, NOT deathbed)!

Yeah, but generally, I don't forget passwords. My memory's one of my stronger points. ;D
