The nation of Studium and the region of Eowyn, and myself are under great threat. I cannot log in as my password is deemed as incorrect, however it is correct. I tried several times including last night and this morning. I checked my nation without logging in and the most recent government happenings occured 3 hours ago. I was most certainly not online 3 hours ago. I haven't been able to log in now since around 10pm last night, 16 hours ago. Recently my region was declared war on, it is possible that this is part of the attack, although peace is now declared. I am desperate for help! My email address is oiga131313@aol.com and my nation is The Kingdom Of Studium, located in The Great Region Of Eowyn. PLEASE HELP ME!

In Great Desperation,
The PM

If you can't get in, then how come you posted with it?

I had to login whilst on the forum. I cannot log into NationStates itself to control my nation or region.

Does this mean my password is unchanged?

Firstly there is no need to post it on 3+ forums. I doubt it has been hijacked - probably an error on your computer???

What kind of computer error can cause me to not be able to log in for over 16 hours whilst my NS account controls itself?

As far as I am aware, the password your nation uses on the Forums is the first password your nation has ever had, and there is no way you can change this. If your nation itself does not respond to it, that means that its password is different to the one it had originally.

Being a Forum Moderator, I cannot address this issue personally. Someone higher up the hierarchy will have to take a look at this and see if anything can be done.

How do I contact such people?

They should see this for themselves shortly. However, for record-keeping purposes, I strongly advise you to use another nation to file a Getting Help report here:

Your nation still has that e-mail associated with it. You can simply request a new password from the Login screen.
