SOLVED! "This Nickname is not registered on this server"

Post by Pine9 »

Hi.
I'm coming back to the game after a while, my nickname is the same as the one in this forum which is 'Nor_Green'.
I can connect to the alternate server with no errors; but can not connect to the official one.
This is the full error "The nickname 'Not_Green' is not registered on this server, we will disallow unregistered nicknames"
Also I went away from the game for a while because I wasn't able to log in(I don't remember what was the error but I'm sure it had something to do with the server itself not the nickname)... but VPN fixed that.
Edit: Windows 7 64bit, Wesnoth version 1.16.2(Steam)
P.S: I'm not using VPN right now.

Edit again:
Sorry here's the full report:

The secondary server doesn't require a forum account to be registered, but the primary server does.

So why can't I log in even though I have a registered account? I tried to log in but nothing happens when I click on the 'OK' button. (double checked password and nickname, they are correct)
Also What is the reason behind having a server requiring a registration and haveing one that doesn't? Is the first server more secure or something?

Ok, I'm sorry I made a mistake; I was trying to log in with 'No_Green' which is missing a T!
It's 'Not_Green' :oops: :roll:
The issue is resolved! Thanks.
