WTF LJ

[fire_fly]

WTF? I can't sign into LJ using Firefox. I have a couple of accounts and I can't log into any of them. It keeps coming up as the wrong password, even though the exact same thing in IE works fine.

I also find it stupid that only paid users can edit their comments nowLJ and facebook appear to be doing it. It is NOT my social-networking-site OTP. I

Huh, mine's fine but I don't use Facebook.

I love lj less for making out like edit's a nifty new feature not a retraction of services. But when I use wordpress it plays up so much I'm always going "why can't it have [insert random lj feature]!!?".

[fire_fly]

Retraction of services?

[puddlesofun]

Eh? I was never able to edit my comments.

[fire_fly]

Oh, I mean that people can edit comments now, but it only applies to paid users. It's annoying and stupid.

[illykai]

I always did my comment editing by deleting and rewriting, which is still possible right?

[fire_fly]

Don't see why not!

[angelacula]

How incredibly annoying! I wonder if we can still delete comments? Because it would be ultra-sucky to realise too late that you couldn't.

[fire_fly]

The delete button is still there. I don't think the edit function changes the delete function.

[big_daddy_matt]

Not cool. You would think that the functionality of editing would be best given to all users, not just those who pay.

The IE thing can be weird. I seem fine on Firefox at the moment. Do you have an older version? I think mine auto-updated about 5 days ago or so. That said there are a few sights out there that don't work well with one browser or another.

Also you can get this cool thing which lets you run IE through Firefox. I have not tried it yet, but I know people who have and they said it works well. As a matter of fact I may just install it now....

[fire_fly]

I'm running 2.0.0.8 (not the latest update). It was fine until yesterday.

[big_daddy_matt]

I have 2.0.0.9 Seems weird that it would stop you. Can you still not get in with Firefox?

[fire_fly]

Nope. Still not working.

[davidcook]

Hmmm. Maybe try clearing out cookies & cache in Firefox, then restart it and try again ?
(I believe LJ "remembers" you by saving a cookie)

[fire_fly]

Yeah, I tried and it failed to do the trick.
