just a test
dont get jumpy
I'll just leave this post here so my alternate account doesn't show
zero posts...
...okay, if you have to know... Because my main account has an underscore in it, it wreaks havoc when trying to login for wiki editing, so I ended up having to create an alternative user name without the underscore; --using a space instead.
But in my main account, I was not getting email notifications, and wanted to turn them on, but I found my email was obsolete, but when I tried to change it told me it was already in use, and that's because I supplied it for my spaceily named account, so I had to create an email account and do a whole switcharoo, and what was I just talking about?...

I'm sorry, I forgot my post here.
No, what happens is that the wiki software replaces the space with an underscore, I think, and when it sees an underscore, it thinks it put it there itself to substitute for a space, or something along the lines. It was too long ago, and I can't remember exactly the symptoms. I think it would allow me to log in and start editing, but then would think I was not logged in when I tried to commit the edits; and then I asked for help in this forum, and someone told me that's a known issue with the wiki software. So, I finally tried creating another user, and that solved the problem. Except I had to set up a new email account for myself
