Account blocked

[dtalbot]

If I try to log in to the website from home it says my account is blocked but it seems I am still logged in to the forum from work as it is letting me post this! Any idea what is going on?

Have you tried clearing your cookies and cache on you home machine.

Have you tried clearing your cookies and cache on you home machine.

Yep, did that several times yesterday
Now I'm into the forum at home using my original password that wouldn't work yesterday and the system reset! Just off to try logging out and then back in via the website!

Yeh, so it's just not me!! sent mail to the admin people, but seems I am logged in... Any ides? I still have the old website address in my favourites....

 

[dtalbot]

Nope that didn't work!
Seems I can log onto the forum using my orginal password but not the website using either old or system supplied reset password. Though from home I am getting a wrong ID or passwor message rather than account blocked.

Same has happened to me.....I am guessing the admin are pretty busy right now so I've mailed them and am going to leave it at that until they have a little more time.

Cheers,

Bam.

Chaps

We are getting quite a few blocked user issues, so we are responding to them as quickly as possible. There was quite a lot of work in transferring everyone over to the new system, and it looks like some have gone awry - should be sorted soon hopefully.

Send an email to info@ if you've still got issues by the end of the day.

Cheers

Hi Guys,

Apologies for not talking to you about this before, I’ve been doing the site and then off to the Moot site to do some work, here now though
I’ll just add to Dave’s comments.

First off, thanks for your patience, there’s a few of you that have this problem but we are working on it, at the moment we’re going through and sorting things manually so your further patience is appreciated. Rest assured that no one is being blocked on purpose and it’s just a temporary hitch.

Cheers

 

[DaveP]

We have now fixed this (we think) - can you post some feedback here to let us know if it is still broken or fixed for you? (Not sure how you manage to get in if it is broken though??).

In short, no-one should be blocked.

Dave

Still no joy logging on to the website with old or replacement password from a few days ago or another new password I just got the system to send me. My original password still logs me into the forum though.

 

[bambodoggy]

Cheer lads, all "seems" to be ok with me now

Many thanks,

Bam.

 

[dtalbot]

OK,
So I can still get logged into the forum but try the website login and now I get a page not found error!

 

[godfather]

I have posted this photo on the old site.

 

[dtalbot]

Problem solved (for me at least) stuff windoze use linux!!! Logged in fine now.

 

[Jodie]

Oh.. that explains why I got an email telling me that my account had been blocked
cos someone had signed in five times with the wrong password. I'd assumed it was
me retrying with caps lock stuck on hehe.

 

[tomtom]

Jodie, that issue was to do with the front end software and the forum software talking to each other. Quite a few people got it but I *think* it is sorted now.

 

[Jodie]

That certainly makes more sense than the prospect of someone trying to hack into
my account

Probably best to keep your tin foil hat on just incase
