Thread: Returning member, can't post with account?

  1. #1

    Default Returning member, can't post with account?

    Hi, I've been away for a couple of years. I have picked up my beloved RTW and started playing again, and part of the experience is this site.
    But I log into my old account here, and cannot post (lack of priviledges or somesuch).
    I have tried emailing the admin on a few occassions and got no response.
    I want to use my old account, anyone help?

    This thread will get noticed by Tosa soon enough, your best bet is to post your old username here, then Tosa will probably get verification from you about the details (or if you can log in, thats probably enough.)

    Meanwhile, could a local mod move this to the Watchtower?

    Question Re: Returning member, can't post with account?

    Hmm, that is too bad. What is your account - perhaps I can see what is wrong with it.

    I thought SlugForAButt was his original account name.

    I even remember his avatar.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    Could you tell us the username of your old account, please?

    If memory serves, I think it's Slug For A Butt, i.e. with spaces.

    Yeah, that's the one. I didn't see it on the member's list either. Weird.

    But there's something funky going on with my account and the admins aren't getting back to me.
    Any ideas?

    Tosa seems to be busy again right now.

    Methinks he needs more time.

    Nothing, I messaged Tosa too. Still nothing.
    Am I in the naughty corner for some reason or is Tosa on his hols?

    As you can see by the new layout of the site Tosa is pretty busy getting everything right with it. It may take him a while to get to you.

    Hello,

    I'll check the account first. I'm guessing it's in awaiting confirmation mode.

    Edit: that was it indeed, perhaps you changed e-mail or requested a lost password? Try to us it now please?
