New members here not getting an activation, or password reset, email....

Post by lunchmoney »

Hello everyone!
I've been getting a lot of messages (via other things, like Twitter) about not getting an email from this board.
Unfortunately it's a software issue and only the owner can get inside and fix that. And he's AWOL for sometime now.

As a workaround any admin can activate accounts and reset passwords. Obviously if you can't log in here you can't do that. So please feel free to message me via another means* and I'll see you through.

If you know someone has signed up but is having trouble, let us know :)

* If you have my number a text or WhatsApp is usually the quickest as I'm more likely to see it sooner.
Otherwise a message on the NAF site, or any other forum I use (user lunchmoney in 99% of cases) or on Twitter, or an email. Even carrier pigeon if you are so inclined :lol:

Since coming back from the black there are a lot of new user registrations. I have reason to believe most of them are spam bots and I've deleted them.
If I've deleted someone you know please have them re-register and let me (or any admin) know and we'll get them active :)

Hello again :)
Seeing a lot of new accounts with similar names as people don't get an activation immediately and create another account with a slight variation in spelling or some numbers attached.

The activation email system (all the email systems) is still borked.

If you need an activation in a hurry please contact me or any other mod or admin.

The email system is still borked, so no one will get an email when creating a new account and no one will get an email when you send a PM.

I've tried contacting the owner, Doubleskulls, but so far he has not replied :(

Polite reminder that the email system still doesn't work (it never will until DoubleSkulls reappears).

Anyone who needs a password reset please email me directly.
