Same here, had to get my password reset this evening. I was logged off even though I hadn't done it myself and then was told, when I tried to log back in, that my password wasn't recognised. Woo woo?

There are so many other threads on site stuff, including the stickied one linked which explains exactly why EVERYBODY is having a problem with logging in.

They're working really hard to fix this. Sadly, a few logging in problems are nothing to the rl problems this hacking has caused.

I had been logged out on the app and the browser. Requested password reset and logged back in fine. Wonder what's going on?

Shinyshoes123 · 18/08/2015 21:39

Me too ... I've even contacted MNHQ. They replied very swiftly but still didn't work ... I've now RE REGISTERED but I've lost all my stuff
I was Shinyshoes2 btw and before that ( same thing happened ) Shinyshoes

I've had this, I've reset my password umpteen times tonight as instructed but just cannot get in, sent an email asking if there were problems with the account but apparently it's fine. Gave up and set up a new account in the end. Bloody annoying.

Mn was hacked and a few people had armed police turn up. See Justines post or the Telegraph for further details.
