I'm back! (just about)

Yay! I tried to reset it again, so I could tell you what the error message says, and it appears to have changed my password OK this time. So hopefully I'm well and truly fully back on the forum now.

How do I change my password now?

I am sorry to read that you're continuing to have issues resetting your password. What does the error message you're getting actually state?

It seems strange that your e-mails to the community manager are bouncing back to you, but I know such things can happen if the recipient's inbox is full, there are server issues, or e-mails exceed message size limitations.

Perhaps try re-sending your e-mail to the Community Manager later today or tomorrow. If it bounces back, then maybe one of us could try sending an e-mail on your behalf.

I've tried doing it via settings now. I'm still getting the same error message I got when I tried the 'forgot password' link. I've tried e-mailing the community manager about it twice and the e-mails are bouncing back to me again!

How do I change my password now?

This forum right now feels about as useful as a tin of corned beef without the key.

Well that isn't confusing (!)

Good luck with that. I just got an error message uploading a new avatar!

Debbie I think we should all change our avatars to spam. I can't say it's a protest.  But I think it'd lighten everyone's load.

This is just making me feel sad and ill. Should these posts pop up in time then I hope the good will in them speaks for itself. I'll take another forum break and see if I'm more trusted when I return. In the meantime, bets wishes to all who might (?) see these words.

It's absolutely nothing to do with you Shardovan and everything to do with this newold forum and in particular the fact that the spam filter is vastly worse than it was before.

It's actually what I used to experience in the past (remember me having to change IDs because I couldn't post due to the spam filter?) but on a mega scale.

Lots of people have been experiencing the same thing.

We love you being here.

Don't go.

You? A troublemaker? Definitely not! I've never known you to ever ruffle feathers here in this community.

Worse things happen at sea

.......and I fear / have reasonable cause to fear that worse things are happening here too !

Apologies to Mark for inadvertently hijacking your thread. Glad you're here and on a path to getting sorted out with something like your old set-up... fingers crossed. 

That's reassuring :-) I sent an email in expressing concern about my posts not appearing and moments later (probably coincidentally) my posts all appeared simultaneously, making me look like a very impatient fellow indeed! Oh well. Worse things happen at sea etc. 

Aww thanks Number. :-) Sorry, just my natural paranoia talking - got triggered by the couple of hours delay in my posts being approved. I thought I'd been deemed persona non grata based on past or present posting. But maybe these delays are the new normal and I just haven't adjusted yet! 

No one really seems to have much of a clue about what is going on at the moment - except random chaos!

I am very confident that you are not deemed a trouble-maker, because if that were so, then I probably wouldn't have the facility to write anything to you at this time!

Teething problems indeed!

Say what now?

First things first.......DELIGHTED that you have found your way back.

Now - bear with.......I need to understand why you don't feel trusted here?  Does not compute?!

Never mind. This is just making me feel sad and ill. Should these posts pop up in time then I hope the good will in them speaks for itself. I'll take another forum break and see if I'm more trusted when I return. In the meantime, bets wishes to all who might (?) see these words.
