Are puppets no longer allowed?

I've got a puppet nation, and I can't get it into the forums (What's left of them...) to RP with.

Is this some new policy?

You have to have an email associated with your nation to login to the forums now.

This stupid thing... I tried logging in using 3 of my puppet nations using a different browser as a test and I was only able to get one of them to log in. No idea what's up with that though. I'm gonna try again here in a minute and see if I can get one of my other untested puppets to log in.

Edit: And something just occured to me here as to why I can't log in with some of mine. On the old system, when nations were first made, the password for the nation was assigned to the forum account. HOWEVER, if the nation's password changed, the forum account's password didn't. I had to log in here with this account using my original password.

And since 3 of my puppets were given to me by other players, some who I don't even remember since it was so long ago, I don't have the original passwords.

If you got some of your puppets via other nations or changed your nation passwords, this might be what's keeping you from getting in.

Score. Sneaky here. I guess this confirms that puppets can post here. :)

I had the password for my puppets reset.

What you can do is go to this link "Lost Password Recovery Form" (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/login.php?do=lostpw), enter your email, and you'll get an email for each puppet you have validated with that email. Inside each email will be a URL that resets the PW for the nation listed in the email and emails you the new password which you can change once you get logged in.

Edit: And thats assuming that you're having the same problem I had with my nations.
