    Maybe somebody should send @isellhondas a wire or something about this change. I've got a bad feeling about him making it through.

    An outsider account has all the same rights and privileges as an insider, except you are on the outside looking in and can't do anything. :'(
    Good grief!  I am now totally confused.  So an outsider can look in, but can’t look out?  An insider can look out, but can’t look in?  Ugh!

    I just signed up for an insider account. One thing I noticed is that it requires a password of at least 7 characters, whereas this site lets you get by with less, so that might be an unexpected stumbling block.
    how do you sign up for the insider account?

    Go to edmunds.com and click the "sign up" link on the top right.
    Thanks Ab......someone finally lets us in on how to sign up.
    So I signed up....do I get to keep my stage name?

    On a BMW board I visit an arrogant(and borderline illiterate) member camped out in a thread I was following. With the help of another participant I managed to get him to thoroughly lose it- which got him banned and the thread locked. It all reminded me of the good old days in Town Hall(AKA: Toon H*ll).

    Love your new “facelift”!  Boy, you are one good lookin’ guy, jmonroe.  A true Adonis with a squared jaw.  I hope you didn’t pay very much - but knowing you, you probably had an intern do the facelift!  :D

    Here's a question.

    Since the last facelift I haven't been able to access the forums except by going to google and entering Edmunds Fourms-Cars and Conversations. I then select some old post to click on in order to enter. PITA but it works.

    Under the new system will that still be possible?

    Same thing has happened to me for at least that long. I tried to change it again tonight and it still doesn't work. If Edmunds ever tried to send me an email, I'll never get it at the email shown in my profile. When the system glitches, I have to remember the wrong email to get in here but that has always worked. In my case if it is broke I ain't able to fix it. Don't worry guys, this change will be seamless.

    ST. ALBANS, Vt. (WCAX) We have new details about a quick stop robbery that sparked a police chase that eventually ended in St. Albans Bay.

    It all started Saturday night when police say Stephen Salyer, 38, of Enosburgh, robbed an Enosburgh Maplefields and ran off. Witnesses had spotted an ankle monitor on the robber, so police were able to get a location on Salyer by using surveillance video and the GPS tracking device on his ankle.

    Officers say they tried to pull the car over, but they say Salyer took off and led them on a 30-minute chase. Spike strips were used, but that didn't stop the car, which eventually reached St. Albans Bay. Police say Salyer drove out onto the dock and right into Lake Champlain. The vehicle sank to the bottom and investigators say Salyer got out and started to swim away from his vehicle, further into the lake.

    Police eventually caught up with him and he was sent to the hospital for his injuries.

    Bail was set at $25,000.

    Yeh, we can start our own group for us computer-illiterates who get lost in cyberspace.
    There is already a group like that, but no body knows how to find them. I think this is just Edmund's way of purging the member list. They think that at least half of us old guys will get lost. Hopefully they have "misunderestimated", as George Bush would say, just how stubborn and spiteful old people are.

    Can one of the moderators check my account to see if I am ready for the sign-in process change? I do have an edmunds insider account with the same email address as the account that I use for these forums. Is that all I need to do to be ready?

    If you made an Insider account with the same email you use here in the forums, you've done all you need to do, and you're good to go. Other than signing in with your Insider password like it says in the login system change announcement there's no secret handshake to know or anything like that ;)
    When I tried to use the same password for my email acct. that I have been using for years, they said it didn't match !!!

    Insider is going to be the new registration for the whole site. Integrates the whole thing. So someone who shows up and hasn't yet discovered the joys of the forums, won't need to create a new account. I've had an Insider acct for a while and now I'll only have ONE PW to remember (or write down)

    There will be no "outsider" login, just a single login

    Like it says in the login systems change thread, this will be pretty straightforward.

    If you haven't created an Insider account before the change, you'll simply create the account the first time you login after the change. Just be sure to use the same email you login with now so that all your badges follow you ;)

    And as long as we're quoting funny people...

    ST. ALBANS, Vt. (WCAX) We have new details about a quick stop robbery that sparked a police chase that eventually ended in St. Albans Bay.

    It all started Saturday night when police say Stephen Salyer, 38, of Enosburgh, robbed an Enosburgh Maplefields and ran off. Witnesses had spotted an ankle monitor on the robber, so police were able to get a location on Salyer by using surveillance video and the GPS tracking device on his ankle.

    Officers say they tried to pull the car over, but they say Salyer took off and led them on a 30-minute chase. Spike strips were used, but that didn't stop the car, which eventually reached St. Albans Bay. Police say Salyer drove out onto the dock and right into Lake Champlain. The vehicle sank to the bottom and investigators say Salyer got out and started to swim away from his vehicle, further into the lake.

    Police eventually caught up with him and he was sent to the hospital for his injuries.

    Bail was set at $25,000.

    He probably got sugared up on those $4 Maplefields muffins and went crazy.

    Well don't you think that Edmund's would have something basic like changing your email working properly?

    Or does my email have to be registered with BMW?

    It's odd that you can't change your email right now. My user name of ab348 was my original email name back in the mid-90s and I used that for a number of registrations way back when, including here. A few years ago when I moved to Gmail and dropped that old provider I was able to change my email address used to log in to these forums to the new email address, though I couldn't change my user name in the forums.

    Now hear this:

    I created an Insider Account using my correct email. I then did some browsing about changes and shown below in BOLD is what I saw when I asked about changing my email here (third question, https://help.edmunds.com/hc/en-us/articles/115011994448-Your-Edmunds-Insider-account):

    How do I change the email address or password associated with my Edmunds Insider account? Your email address cannot be updated once you create an account. To change your password, log in to your Insider account and click on the gear icon on your dashboard (or jump directly to your settings using this link).

    So, from that it looks like Edmunds expects you to keep your present email and never change it. REALLY EDMUNDS ???? :o

    So much for seamless.
