Ok so I have not been able to log in for months, even with the correct login info. Now it appears I can.

I even contacted SE; they said forum access was shut off for those not in Alpha (I'm not, but have Vet status for Beta), and that those left here would soon lose access as well.

.... Has Beta started and I didn't realize it? Waz goin' on here? Been gone a looooong time, even though I left my sub active in a shameless act of SE/FFXIV fanboyism/support.
