Maybe it is because the account i use dates back to about '00 or so?
The date of your account is irrelevant for the purposes of the empire passwords used in any of the games you are in.

When u join a PBW game that is in progress you will receive via email the empire password for that empire. This is the password that the previous player has told PBW the password is. If for some reason the password has been changed (this is done inside SEIV) AND the password recorded on PBW has not been updated to reflect any changes to the password, then the password sent to your email will be incorrect and you cannot log into that empire

The only solution in that case is to either email the previous empire owner and find out what the new password is, or get the game owner to log into the game turn and manually reset your empires password (you will miss 1 game turn because of this process)
