If it tells you to enter an AAO playername, then you've made a new account.

You want to change the playername of your old account:

Right now BT seems to be down so I can't check for details.

He has empty space in the middle of his playername, which is not allowed to use and causes unsuccessful login.

yes I got that one too when I had illegal char on my playername. I tried to use ASCII char, but it didnt work, Assists asked to rename the playername again.

I see it now, when I last posted, battletracker was down so I couldn't see the details.

You definitely can't have spaces in your name, however, it shouldn't say you need to choose a new playername because of disallowed characters in the name. It shouldn't say you need to set your AAO playername.

But yeah, just change it tomorrow and if you still have a problem, post again.

But it does.. Do you have some test accounts? Try to rename an account with some illegal char on it and then try to log in. Assist complains about the playername and then it gives you a chance to change the playername. If I remember right, changing the name from that way doesn't work, correct me if Im wrong.

Seems like a BT issue. If she is unable to access her account we can deactivate it and activate a new one for her.

You can as far as on our end. We don't limit how many PCs you can play on with a single account. If the account is activated and you are still unable to log-in, it's not a problem on our end.

I tested the name change and you're right, it does seem that it says "Account login OK, You will now be asked to set an AAO PlayerName".
I thought it only did that for new accounts in the past and had a different pop up for invalid characters.

In any case, if you manage to log in on another account or you change your PlayerName on battletracker, you're good to go.

As for passwords, since the accounts are still at battletracker, we don't have access to the password and you can only change it through their systems.
Did you successfully log in with the reset password at battletracker.com?
I know their site was down for some time yesterday so it might have caused some problems, including but not limited to passwords not getting reset.

Don't give up yet, just remove the empty space from your playername and make sure you do it from Battletracker.com tracker settings tab. Then log in to Assist with correct name, you'll be able to continue playing. I know the time cap is annoying, but you'll success in this :)
