Feature Request: Make it more clear that double registration is necessary

[greencircle]

Hi forum,

I had registered on factorio.com. Then i wanted to post in some forum thread, but was directed to the login page.

I tried to login again and again but it did not work. I tried to fiddle with my browser addons. No luck. Turns out it does not recognise my registration from factorio.com.

My recommendation: either unify the registrations, or simply notify users that double registration is necessary. On the forum login page, you could have a message saying:

Note: the forum registration is separate from your registration on factorio.com, you can only login if you created a forum account. No account yet? Register here: ..

Something like that is more easy for novice users.

Actually, it's written here : https://factorio.com/support/help

But I agree that it would provide a better user experience to have the information right where it's most needed, the forum login page.

An informational notice has been added to the login page, thanks for the suggestion.
