I'm having these issues with the Wowace forums as well.

Same problem, I show as logged in on all tabs on wowace.com apart from the forum. Clicking login or register does nothing. I tried all the things suggested here but none of it worked.

when you log into wowace there should be a cookie set to the value of 'login'

can you confirm that there is?

How is this only medium priority? It seems like the inability to use the forums and communicate with the community should be much higher priority >.<

I'm having this exact same issue. I can login to www.wowace.com just fine, but when I go to the forums it says I'm not logged in. Then when i go back to wowace home it says I'm logged in. Attempting to post on the forums, reply, or create a new thread doesn't work because it asks me to login and doesn't accept my wowace or curse credentials....even though I verified they are the correct credentials by logging into wowace.

I'd really like to be able to use the forum >.<

I also am having this bug.

What's funny is that I just tried some massive workaround. Below it says that this is a cookie issue. So I opened up Internet Explorer (I use Firefox mainly), cleared the cookies, deleted internet files, and cleared the history. I created a brand new account with a new email address and it created successfully. (I still have not received any confirmation email for it which is odd.)

- Then I attempted to log into the forums with the newly created account. It said invalid username and password.

- So I tried the "Forgot My Password" link and it said my email was unrecognized.

- As a last resort, I tried re-creating the account and it said my email was in use.

Ok...

What the heck is going on here????

I cleared my cookies and tried again and still no go. I also emailed the administrator twice through the link provided and have yet to receive a response.
