Hello Tech-gurus,
I've just noticed that my post from yesterday, my wall posts from the last several months, and my "self-portrait" posts from the last several months have vanished. Any ideas what's up?
Thank you for your time.

[buDdha]

Also, my avatar has reverted to an earlier picture and the quote line below my avatar has reverted to "registered user" from what I'd changed it too. It's as if the last few months of my history here has disappeared.

I'll save the admins the effort...

It happened to everyone. You'll find several threads, including news from the admins, about it.

Nothing to be done save for restoring as much as you can... especially the pictures.



PS. Anyone you know who joined within the last 9 months will have to reregister and start from scratch.

PPS. I mean start their membership from scratch. You don't have to start playing from scratch... unless you want to relive the NRE.

Lol, Oz, you liar you! Come on - tell BuDdha the truth, and don't keep the poor girl hanging!

- BudDha, to conserve mass and energy in a rapidly decaying universe, we've gone back to last March and have the last eight months to live over again.

Hello, This is MitchC. Earlier tonight I got locked out of the forum, because my yahoo email box, which is my forum registration contact email, froze on me. I tried to re register under the name MitchellC, and I gave my contact email as my Comcast box, I keep receiving a message that says my username and password to access the forum have been sent to me at my Comcast email, but I have checked my Comcast email, and there is nothing there. I would either like to have my old MitchC account changed to my Comcast email address, or to find out how I may receive my password on my new MitchellC account. I apologize for re registering. It was not my intent to be devious, but when I got locked out, and since I cannot access my Yahoo email box, I did not know what else to do. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,

This is Sadistic Nature. I am also experiencing this problem.

Regards,

SN.

Thanks, SN. I have a feeling that maybe the forum isnt sending out contact emails then. This has happened in the past. Hopefully an admin or mod will see this, and can assist us both. Take it easy,my friend.

If you are continuing to experience this problem, it actually is NOT the site not sending you an email--the site is sending the email. The problem is one of a few things: sometimes we notice emails seem to get "stuck" when going to certain types of email accts (hotmail & yahoo are known problems occasionally). Also, check your "junk mail". Additionally, these emails are NOT "instantanious" all the time. They don't just "poof" work---they can take a few minutes or hours to get to you.

If you are having continuing problems & need your password re-set so that you can log into forums, send an email to Torq at torq654@gmail.com and he can re-set your password for you so that you can log into forums. This is PREFERABLE to re-registering. Re-registering simply will continue the cycle of emailing round-and-round again.

In the email, be sure to include your username in the Forums. Without this, your password can not be reset.

I would re-set both of your passwords for you, but since neither of you can access forums, and neither of you provided emails for contact info, I can't do that. So send Torq an email, and he will password re-set when he has a chance. It could take a day or two, so please have some patience.

Ok. Apparently me via moco is not sufficient. So let's try it directly from me & see if this works instead.

Chat is down. No, we do not have an estimated time it is going to be back up. Yes, we will notify everyone when it is back up. No, you do not need to incessently click on the "chat" button--we will tell you when it's up and running properly.

We are working through a few major site issues still. Please be aware that since last weekend, the site admins have been working pretty much non-stop to get the site back up & working. Thus & such, we're all fairly tired and eventually need a bit of a break. Yes, chat will get back up. However, it is not a 911-emergency. It isn't life or death (though to the chat addicts *coughs* moco & yogi, lol *coughs* it might be). So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE have some PATIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!

.... AND PLEASE........ for the love of humanity (and my sanity)... STOP POSTING MORE THREADS ON IT (note: they continue to get merged into this one, and simply slow us down from fixing stuff).... AND STOP PMing ME... WE KNOW IT'S DOWN.... WE'RE WORKING ON IT...

CHILL!!!!!! LOL....

[yogi]

*stops midway of making the 911 call....* oh? *looks at moco* I'm not an addict, I swear! *sits in the corner waiting for chat to come back to us* ...and thank you to Tiger, Torq, delia, and the rest of the tech team!! without them... there would be no chat... *shudders at the thought*

[ppr128]

Patience, grashopper

Thanks, delia. This is Mitch. I will explain the situation to Torq. Your help is appreciated.

I sure hope they can revive it soon, *bites nails, looking worried*

*whimpers and cries*

this is an emergency...CHAT is DOWN...code blue...code blue

[morwyn{Myrddin}]

Lol, i am not an addict, i am perfectly fine and patient lol, ok, so maybe i did click it a lot before i looked here to see there was a valid reason it was not working and not just a conspiracy to keep me out! So now i am fine lol.

[fetishdj]

Smash the glass and break out the emergency chat room!!!!!

[yogi]

HAHAHA... yes...exactly! lmao. *goes off to look for a really big hammer...*

[moco]

this reminds me of that mervyns commercial the lady is standing outside the doors in the middle of the night "open open open" tapping her fingers on the glass doors...

I know I am an addict

people say that like its a bad thing....

*stands at podium, looks around*
Hello I am moco, i am an addict of library chat....
