    I lost my password, had one sent to my email, received a password I will never remember, logged in, and unsuccessfully tried to find a way to change the password to something I could remember. My message was closed because it was categorized as spam, it is most definitely not spam, email me at mscir@yahoo.com and I will be happy to email you back. Is it possible to change passwords used to log into this site or not? If it is, what is the procedure? I tried searching for it and didn't see anything relevant.

        I know you probably have the solution to this already, but just for anyone else who is wondering... Yes - it's actually pretty simple. 1) Use the password you were sent to log in, then go to your profile page settings by hovering the mouse over your name in the top right corner of any page and selecting "My Settings" 2) On the Account tab (the default) in the middle of the page is "Password" and a link "Change..." 3) Hover the mouse over the "Change..." link and a popup will allow you to enter a new password (twice for safety). (You must enter your current password to prove it is you, not someone trying to annoy you while you get a coffee). 4) Press "Save my Settings" at the bottom of the page.
