I can log in?!?!

#1
So, uh, yeah. I tried to log in literally moments ago on a whim, since I meandered across a link to here from a different forum. It worked. This is significant, because I've been locked out of logging in or registering a new member profile on this site for months. All I got were little messages saying I got an error and to contact an admin (and getting the same error message when I tried to contact one.)

So, I'm just kinda wondering...what happened? Was this a common thing, or exclusive to me?

Were you on TOR?

Also, TFF has IRC for things like this, you know.

Let him talk Shiro. The IRC is ... not always that helpful. Speaking of which, I need to find a new cross-platform IRC client ...

@Dark Abstraction,

Not sure about your situation, really. We did have an issue earlier with some TOR users not being able to login, but I'm not aware if we (or our host) did anything to address the matter.

I couldn't use the IRC, couldn't get it to work for me.

Not on TOR, no.

Hi Dark, welcome back to the forum and I'm sorry to hear you had problems.

I checked your account info and I can see that you haven't added an email account to your profile. Since we copied only publicly viewable information from old TFF, you don't have an email address, which can and does block some basic user functionality. If you'd go ahead and put an email address in we'll start trying to figure out what happened.

Ah, so that's what happened.

Sorry for intruding but I haven't been able to log in as FlinFlon because I seem to have forgotten my password and it wasn't recognising my email as valid. But now I recall that my email wasn't public...

Oops.

Now what?

Now you PM me, with your email address, I edit it into FlinFlon, and then we merge your old and new account with whatever name you prefer.

I'll do the same for Dark Abstraction, and anyone else who was locked out or had to create a new profile to get on nTFF.

Welcome back by the way.
