um what does failed login attepmts=2 mean?

for some odd reason i get failed log in attempts 1 - 5 when i log in? is someone trying to hack me but failing? and no i dont use hacks or cheats.

Quite possible that someone is trying to hack your account, or you merely mistyped your password a few times. In any case, its been happening to a lot of people recently. Make sure you have a strong password and you should be fine.

It currently happens to many forum members, including me. I guess somebody uses the account lists in the trade forums in order to log in by using stupid passwords. If your password is aaa, 1337, the name of your girl/boyfriend or so, change it to something more complex, like a mix of letters and digits, producing a word nobody has ever used.
