Inactive? Hmm, it shouldn't be. I'll look into it. Get him to pop on the chat server sometime if he's still unable to log in.
Update: Somehow his account was disabled. I'm going to see if I can go through the server logs and find out why.
Update to the update: It's possible that using the password reset feature may have disabled Lith's account. I don't know if he used it or not, but that's the only thing I can see that's even remotely possible. There are a couple of other accounts that are flagged as disabled, and I'm not sure why...
Update^3: Binary server logs were disabled back in 2007 because of the disk usage, so it doesn't look like I'm going to be able to figure out what happened. Since I re-enabled Lith's account before I checked the database, anything that may have lent clues has been reset (that was a bit of dumb thing on my part). I think it may have something to do with the forum's login tries counter. It should be disabled (unlimited login attempts), but given the bugs that tend to exist in phpBB, I wouldn't be surprised if that's what happened to catch him. If that's the case, I may just have to rip that out of the source. I'd still like Lith to get in touch with me so I can get a better idea of what happened when he tried logging in, so pass that along to him. If it's a phpBB bug, it's bound to affect someone else sooner or later, and I'd like to get that seen to before it surfaces again
I gave that lich a phylactery shard. Liches love phylactery shards.
