    Default 74ROLLA can't access most of the site

    Hey,

    Rob has been having a problem accessing most of the site for a week or two now, he just sent me a PM now:

    I sent two PM's to Kirsty2520 but still no answer . . . .

    Because I cannot access parts of this site, can you either put me in touch with someone who can help (I cannot post in the Membership and Feedback section either) or pass on this PM to somebody who may be able to fix up my account????

    Sorry to bother you mate but I dont know what else to do as I am running out of ideas

    Cheers

    Rob
    If you read this Kirsty, or someone else who might be able to sort it, can you have a look please?

    Thanks
    Bardin

    Did he change his email recently? If so, has he confirmed his email address? (i.e. clicked the link in the email he was sent?)

    I had lots of issues when I changed my email, because I didnt get the confirmation email.

    After 4 to 5 weeks of trying to verify my email (never received the email to clarify and register the new address) I finally setup a new hotmail account and it finally worked.

    I know the board is busy, but no replies in PMs for help in all this time was disappointing.

    I now have an email address I dont want to use to access these forums, but if thats what I had to do, then thats what I did.

    What the problem 'could' be is some ISP's interpreting the incoming confirmation email as spam and not being received? I changed to I-Primus and did not receive the confirmations, maybe this helps others in future problem email changes?
    Cheers

    Unfortunately toymods can't really predict what an ISP is going to filter and what they won't.. Best solution is don't use the email address that comes with your ISP, because then when you change, you have issues.. Get a gmail account, that way you can use it in outlook / thunderbird as you would normally, and isn't ghey like hotmail..

    Now that your back i think its time for a group hug in the KE thread

    I'm with you there mate. I eventually found out about the confirmation email thing when I went looking through another forum and just happened to stumble across it...

    Yeah, it is definately an ISP issue filtering the confirmation as spam.

    Just happy I am back

    Have you recently changed the email address in your CP?

    If you have, then you need to click on the activation link in an email that has been sent to your new email address...
