Well it means that you need to be logged in for a start. :P

Wordpress accounts, for the comments section in the news, at the moment work on a separate system to the ones for the boards here. Basically you need two accounts in order to post on these forums and in the news comments.

If you already have a Wordpress account then you have to hit Logout » in order to log in (which is confusing, yes). If not then you have to make a Wordpress account.

*edit* Was that second post a "hurry up"? :P I was already answering you when you posted lol. Bear with these boards they're pretty quiet (which when you look at the state of other gaming forums, isn't necessarily a bad thing).

Hit Logout and then it should take you to a screen that says, "Successfully Logged Out". Underneath that it should have two boxes; one for Username (King Triffle, thresholdXCI etc) and one directly underneath that for your password. Just fill them out and hit enter and it'll take you to a screen about your Profile. Hit back twice (to go back to the GoNintendo article you wished to comment on) and then hit refresh. You should be logged in now.

Hope that helps. 8)

Put up with Wordpress's general crappiness for just a little longer...
