Problems with changing password.

I tried to replace all punctuated letters in my password with normal ones, but when I try to edit again, it still doesn't let me edit and according to my password changing thing, my password hasn't changed o-o

So, I can't just do that? Great, now I need to figure another easy one to remember that isn't obvious...

Do you want your password reset?

No, I can't edit anymore since my password has punctuation in it =P And it refuses to change it when I change letters to non-punctuated ones... So yeah.

If your account is reset you might be able to change your password.

???? No?

I meant that... Well, I need to now change the password since of some changes to editing =P Now it doesn't let me edit without changing the password, but...

Ugh, am I really that hard to understand? x-x;

Oh whatever, I just try to see if it works if I change it to completely different one...

...Okay, WHAT. Now I'm gonna ask mods help =P

Spooky Mask, I'm sorry but you are a little difficult to understand here. Is this to do with your editing password, specifically?

Well, I can't edit since apparently you can't edit if your password has several things, like the punctuation =P And I tried editing punctuation out(for example, if my password were "MIKE, I would make it mike") but I learned that it refused to change my password into different one =P Then I changed my password into COMPLETELY different one, but I lost my ability to edit messages or send them at all. I fixed that by going back to the password changing thing and changing it into the old one...

Hmm. I'll be honest, I'm not entirely clear on how the edit password is distinct from the regular password. If I reset your account so that you could choose whatever password you wanted, would that help you?

Hmm... Okay, time to try to fix it I guess =/
