you must be logged in java or else you wouldn't be able to post in the chog. I am confused.
3:26 pm

I am still logged in on my phone and my pad, but not on my new computer. And my account isn’t recognized on the new computer
3:27 pm
MollyL
Email Dr. God...dr.god@playbabble.com
3:28 pm
Bugsaw
totally weird. Either your login works or it doesn't. . . I guess you may just have to wait until Dr God checks his email or you could start another account if you are not tied to your stats, altho I think he can transfer stats to your new account. Be java3 ;)
3:29 pm
MollyL
You should be able to log on with the original email address and original password, no matter where you are logging in
3:29 pm
Bugsaw
exactly my thinking too
3:33 pm

That’s what I thought. But when I try, I’m told one or the other is invalid.
