Admin Can't Login

[mmhmm]

Since being bumped off the forum as a result of the earlier "bear problem", I'm unable to log back in.  I'm an administrator on the NotMSNMoney forum, www.notmsnmoney.proboards.com/index.cgi.  I don't ever log off; however, the bear took it upon himself to log me off and now I can't get back on.  Can someone speak to the bear, please?

[Martyn Dale]

I actually just sent a PM to moonbeam about the crash and resultant issues that could occur. We are currently looking into this issue.

[mmhmm]

Thanks, Martyn. I sorta feel like a fish outa water! Derned bear!

[Sroo]

Whew!!! I thought it was just me. Mmhmm, you look a lot different over here, I didn't recognize you.


Should I just try to log on intermittently or can we look in this forum for resolution?

[moonbeam]

Hey Martyn. I just read your PM. Was coming over to see if any other forums were having issues because there are a number of people I'm hearing about on my board that are experiencing the problem.. So far, I know of

femmefatale
djlungrot
peaceofmind
macbeth
mmhmm
scottishlassie
sroo
justaposter
insurancegal
missmargarita
buystoys
redkitty


Sroo, they're working on restoration, so hang tight.

[moonbeam]

additional users I've since found out about:

justaposter
insurancegal
missmargarita

I noticed (I can, at least, read)a couple have tried to start new accounts (dj and femme). Still no luck with efforts to login.

[moonbeam]

Yes, but I am holding off on doing anything with the pendings until Martyn gets back to me. I did make an announcement over there..

[mmhmm]

Hopefully, they'll check in here to see what's going on. No sense in having duplicate accounts once the bear has been properly chastened.

[moonbeam]

Wondering if these accounts were actually created by the users, or if it's happening as part of the work Martyn is doing. Some are duplicates.

Sorry for the delay, I just want to make sure everything is good before I push buttons. The changes im doing should not cause double posting however.

[mmhmm]

Hmm. Hadn't thought about that. It could be something Martyn is doing to try to fix the problem.

[mmhmm]

Thanks for your help, Martyn. It'll be nice to be able to sign back in!

Not double posting, Martyn, but double accounts pending registration. Should I be approving those? Or will their original accounts with all posts/ PMs be restored.. I don't want to deny and then have them actually be deleted.

[djlungrot]

martin- deny that new membership under my name (djlungrot). if i have to become a new member, i would rather use my new name (macroscopic). that should preserve all of my old data, or at least some of it.

hopefully, my data has not already been paved over....
