Hi Drupal,

Sorry. I forgot my password after creating my account (forgot to save in my browser) and I made 5 wrong attempts. I have now reset my password, but I get an error stating that I am locked out since there were 5 wrong attempts.

Just to let you know, it was me doing the logins, nothing is wrong. :) If you could go ahead and remove the error for me that would be great.

Now that I have contact with you anyway, I also saw a notification about not being a confirmed member yet, however I did already confirm my e-mail address. Can you help me, how can I confirm my account, or can you do this for me?

Many thanks,
F. van Dam - Sr. Recruiter - Amsterdam, the Netherlands

I confirmed the account (which is not related to confirming the email).
You should receive an email for resetting your password. If you don't, please comment here.

Query 1: Regarding the account getting locked after 5 consecutive wrong passwords.
@vandam82, Drupal.org temporarily blocks a user after 5 consecutive wrong passwords for a certain period of time. By now your account should have become active automatically.

Query 2: Requesting for a confirmed role at Drupal.org.
I see that the user account(vandam82) is already confirmed (not by me).

Kiamlaluno - what more info do you need before we can close this?

I was waiting for the OP to confirm he received an email for resetting his password, which he could not reset since his IP was blocked from asking a new password after more than 5 attempts.

I confirmed the user account. Since the OP hasn't replied back, I will close this issue as fixed.
