I found a bug in your signup process: If the passwords you enter on the signup form don't match, it gives you an error, but creates the account anyway — so when you retype the passwords, it then tells you it can't create the account because the email is already used.


You've found a bug! I just fixed this so hopefully it won't happen again. If you're not able to login, give the "Forgot Password" link a try!


Thanks. Yeah, "Forgot Password" link was the first thing I tried and it worked perfectly, but I thought you'd like to know about the bug anyway. Silly little things like that can be hell on your bounce rate.
