Why can’t I post late at night or early morning and why am I having to verify how many cars or traffic lights are in the bloody verification?

To be pedantic he is long term member with a new login.

Is it really not possible to remove these limitations for smiffy?

No, as if this is the case he's breaching the rule of posting No.21.

And look at my posting history,all from the smiffymoto account.

Now I see I can’t post in the news and politics forum for 1 year and have to have a certain post count.

This forum used to be a good place,now it isn’t.

I don’t know what’s going on in the back ground or behind the scenes but it needs sorting out.

How are they supposed to know you are the same person behind both accounts?

The forum software here is dreadful, but that doesn’t change the basics of good security

Needing 1000 posts before you're able to dive in the NP&E hot tub is very silly.
I've been here for a long time but am not likely to ever get to 1000 posts.
Make it 100.
Not sure what the mods are trying to get a feel of using 1000 posts that they won't get from 100.

I always thought it was just them trying to shield good honest members from that cesspit.

Am I missing something? As your posting history contains one single post nuts

If you want to log in to your smifffymoto account you will need to use the live.co.uk email address you registered with.

If you don't have access to it anymore then email info@pistonheads.com and ask them to help you change the address on the account.

If I was given the option of changing email address I would have but I don’t remember being given that option when I was first logged of my smifffymoto user account. I don’t have access to the smiffyn email because it’s over 25 years old and belonged to my deceased wife,so I can’t ask her and she probably wouldn’t remember anyway.

Perhaps you can do as JezzaC has suggested and contact info@pistonheads.com from your email account and explain the situation.
