Do I change my password by just deleting the 'stars' in the boxes on my profile and typing in the new password in both boxes?
Yes.
The only change that sets off a chain of events is changing your email address, but all it does is email you out a new password. That's why the system must have a valid email address. AOL.com, rr.com, netscape.com and cs.com still don't let dsboards mail through most if not all of the time, so if anyone finds themself unable to log back onto the forum for this or any reason, please don't hesitate to email <
Midnite@dsboards.com> or <
