Ankiweb credentials get prefilled to forums login but don't work

Hi,

apparently the forums use a different account than Ankiweb for syncing decks etc., which makes probably sense. However, modern browser fill in user credentials (username + pw) based on domain names AIUI, and I was just quite confused when my Ankiweb credentials were filled in here but didn’t work. Since the domain of the forums contains “ankiweb”, I kind of assumed that it would be using the same account.

What I want to ask/say: A small note on the login site would be helpful, e.g. “Note: The forums account is separate from the Ankiwebs account.”

Thanks.
