Hello.

I have found this kind of issue a while before, and today there is still nobody has fixed it yet.
In short, login to MyBB forum ( even here on community.mybb.com ), once you have logged in, locate the address bar of your web-browser and navigate to "./member.php?action=login" orĀ "/member.php?action=lostpw".
It is just no-sense; Why able to access these pages when logged/signed in already?
(Just abort the request if already logged/signed in or navigate to the previous page I guess)

It allows you to log in as another user (hence the current username is displayed above the form). So there is nothing wrong...

If you're logged in, it doesn't mean you remember your password... Why? Tip: cookies. Also, you may want to send the recovery mail for someone else.

There are no problems caused by entering these links as a logged-in user, thus I'm rejecting this.
