Email telling me I'd requested a new password
Hi, I had an email tonight to say I'd requested a password change, then another email with a new password. I didn't request these. Has anyone else had any issues? I've now changed the pw and email to update security. There is another user called mumstheword (all lower case)... Perhaps she tried logging in using a capital?!

Thank You
A "Thank You" to the forum team who have recently helped me regain access to my forum account that I had lost for an unknown reason. Thank you, forum team for your help. Reading other posts, you get a lot of stick sometimes, but you have helped me. :)

Please can we invite an FCA representative for Q&A
MSE used to invite people on to answer forum questions. Any chance we could revive that? Over on Savings and Investments we have been discussing a number of loopholes in the regulations which are resulting in unscrupulous firms scamming money off naive investors. It would be great to put them to the FCA and see if anything…

I have emailed "MSE Support" - but why has this happened I am posting this via VPN - Which proves that it is not an account related issue ! I…

Appearance.
Sorry to bring this up and I'm a bit too lazy to trawl threads to find the solution. Especially after setting everything up again on this laptop! I've had to reset my computer and as a result lost the Firefox add on with which it was possible to fill the screen rather than a third of it with this silly layout. I'm sure it…

Resurrecting old threads
Periodically an old inactive thread on MSE is resurrected, in virtually every case the post either adds nothing to what's been said earlier, or should really be a new thread in it's own right. Does the software behind the forum provide the functionality to automatically close threads which have seen no posts for a certain…

'Heartier': Innacurate description
You will see my post under 'Christmas' describing an underweight and poorly butchered "large" turkey (I have a series of photographs including one of my scales being calibrated). I paid £79 (a reduction of £40) for a 5 kg Gressingham bird, available from Ocado for less than £30. The sausages, sausage-meat and bacon would…

Application Firewall Error - 65% of posts mainly just text
TL;DR - My requests to post keep getting blocked - I would send a screenshot but it keeps getting blocked Problem Every day about 2/3 of my mainly text posts get a pop up saying my request has been blocked "if you feel you have been blocked in error please contact ...." I contacted them a few days ago but no reply.…

Copyright
A few years ago, MSE stated that for any pictures uploaded on to the site, that MSE held copyright and that they could use. Does this still remain in place? There was a cross stitch cafe where members post photos of their work, but there was much unhappiness that MSE took copyright.

Links in post

Jumping Smilies
Any chance these could be disabled? Is it necessary to have these things jumping up and down? Migraine sufferers/epileptics can be very badly affected. Some people even put them in their signatures. The occasional moving smilie in a post fair enough, but continuusly being confronted by them whilst following a thread in…

Not Spam
I see I have just been warned for using the spam button. It seems that although I assessed a post/thread as spam, MSE decided it was not spam and I have been threatened with losing posting privileges if this ever happens again. It won't be happening again, as I for one will not be using the spam button again. Is there…

Suggestion for improvement - "Title" is misunderstood
Not uncommon to see a post by a newbie where the title of the post is their surname. They mistake "title' as meaning not the title of the post but, their title, say "Mr AJ" for me, or as here "Miss Mack" which means the OPs name can be deduced. My suggestion is, change "title" to something else, perhaps "Subject" or…
