Signing onto the game online and signing onto the forum - is it different?

[Rolland]

I sign onto this forum with a particular name and password.  But when I put those values into the game to sign on I get invalid password.
Do I need to make a different game online password?  Does it know my user ID?

GameID and ForumID are not tied in any way. You can use the same in both (if that ID is available), but it is not automatic nor required.
