In any case, this current site actually loads, and I reckon so far so good.
Same thing happened to me, and since I couldn't get in, I couldn't contact anyone here to tell them what was happening. I tried resetting my password a bunch of times, and they'd ask for my email address. I'd enter that, and there was a notice saying "email sent",,,,, but it never arrived.
Same thing happened to me... sort-of. I had changed my e-mail (years ago), but I likely (undoubtedly) didn't update the change on my HC account, so my e-mail address on file with HC didn't exist... so I was stuck between a rock and a hard spot since HC couldn't e-mail me the reset password thingy. My work-around solution was to register as a new member under my previous but now seemingly defunct username.
Stop !!!! You're an imposter !!!! What have you done with Mark???? 
Sorry, guys, I've had my share of problem here as well, namely the admins didn't have my correct email address, there's no "office" forum for mods to post in, and I had several personal issues that required my attention more than here. So I didn't get notice of the move, then couldn't contact anyone to get any training, and still haven't found a lot of the features yet.
So I apologize for your issues and hope most have been resolved. I'm looking through the PM's and checking to see who can and can't post. I have zero ability to make changes to accounts at this point, but can forward your issues to the Admins. They're the ones who've been doing all the heavy lifting on this mess.
Okay, I think at this point Mark is using another account (Audiopile), and Don is using dboomer2. It appears everyone else who contacted me is able to use their original account. If not, let me know, and if I don't handle it by this evening (Monday) PM Craig Anderton or Phil O'Keefe to ask if they can help.
Note that you can't assign the same email address to two account names, so in Don's case I can't update his dboomer account because dboomer2 has his current email address.
"just" create another emai address and let me know what it is and I'll get that address assigned to the account you want to use, and your reset notifications should go there. Should...

Wait ... That's what I said.
When this is all straightened out they should double Craig's pay!
Craig Anderton's, for sure. He and the rest of the Admins are where the buck stops.
Mine you can quadruple and it'll still be the same.

I had to change my password but I made it thru ok. I created this account in either 98 or 01, can't remember but I was in dutch harbor at the time playing bass in a blues band (Unalaska is dutch harbor). Whats kinda wierd is as the information age ages, people who die off leave a huge wake of data. Kinda sad but I have email and phone numbers (facebook pages) from a few friends who have died. There is no social ritual for the burial of the eDead.
So true. There are several users from HCBF that I fear have passed away. It's a strange thing to not hear from someone who you only know from the internet, and realize you have no way to contact them. The anonymity is good in some ways, not so much in others.

Just to be clear Craig A doesn't get paid for his time moderating the forums either - so let's go ahead and triple his forum admin pay too .

Tell yah what - we'll do that too 
. Just remember that "No good deed goes unpunished" .
