which password are you talking about? to play you have to fill out an application and an acceptance email will be sent to you with the passwords.

Remember:

1) Make sure you are trying to get into the right server with the right password (make sure you are using the passwords out of that email, and preferably don't copy-paste them as it sometimes (but not always) adds wierd characters and spaces). The password for Elysia won't get you into Mikona.

2) Remember that the password is CaSeSensItiVe. Make sure you aren't hitting capslock and make sure you are entering the cases right. This trips a lot of people up, especially on a certain server with a very long password.

Seems we have a server password problem after that last reset by Twiggy.

Crosses fingers, hoping for best

That explains it then.

EDIT: One password? Wait...

I think you are mixing up things.

The acceptance e-mail should have something along the lines of the following:

Mikona: IP blah blah blah.5121
Password: XxxXxxxXXxx

Wilderness: IP blah blah blah.5122
Password: XxxxxxxXxxxxXXxxxx

Elysia: IP blah blah blah.5121
Password: xxxxXxxXxx

Ect. at the end of it

This is not your forum registration thing... this is what you get from applying to Avlis. Did you fill out the application form? This this not the same as registering on the forums...

They sometimes change the password when the module is being reloaded I believe.

what you received was the name/password to register on these Boards.

to play in Avlis you have to go here: portal.php?getpage=application_form

fill that out, send it in, and you should have response within 48 hours after the application is reviewed. Then you will get an email confirming your acceptance with the servers and all the different passwords.
