Have you tried using your old password? I'll see if it works for me over there.
Must be a vertical scope forum...
They all got hacked...

One of their "sister" forums that I'm on did the same thing. New computer generated password is a mix of upper case, lower case letters, plus symbols and numbers. First password would not work so I asked for a different password to be sent to my email address. The second password finally did work. Stupid system!!!!
BTW, I now notice that the forum now had very few people on it now.

Looked up a list of Vertical Scope's holdings...darn near every automotive forum but this one...
What benefit would there be in hacking a hosting service used by a bunch of marque-specific sites?
These sites can be a great source of information for prospective buyers and are also useful for diagnoses and repair advice, but what would there be to gain from hacking them?

Hacking into websites yields thousands of names and passwords.
The names are compared with other lists and the passwords are applied to those other accounts.
BINGO they're in lots of times because many people use the same password for everything.

How many sites where security actually matters allow the kind of simple, basic passwords required by sites like BITOG or the marque sites that were hacked?
Many and probably most users of sites of this kind post bogus and untraceable personal information anyway, or simply fail to give it.

You have to check your email, they sent everyone a temporary password to enter to log in; then you can change it again
I'm on a couple VS-owned forums.
At least you received a new replacement automatically; some users, including I, didn't.
I had to use the "forgot password" link and be sent a new password.
Even then, I had to use it twice for one of them; the first new password it sent didn't work.
Their password system(s) aren't working properly, to say the least. SNAFU
