Announcement ATTN: Problems in creating new accounts (solved!)

Mulefoot · Jun 30th 2018, 8:44am

Due to circumstances beyond our current control, this software that underlies this forum is not letting new users sign up. The issue has to do with reCAPTCHA v1 no longer being supported. We are working on the problem but it will require a few more days to get everything sorted out. The fix involves changing versions of the forum software and we are moving ahead with caution to make sure no user data is lost.

Until this issue is corrected, if you would like to create an account, please drop an email to me at mulefoot@gmail.com with the subject line, "Create Forum Account" and the username you wish to have. I will create the account manually and then email you your temporary password. After which you'll be able to log in normally.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Oh Darn, thanks for informing us, I think I may have to take you up on resetting my password

If you are already a member of the Forums you "should" be able to access your account and change anything you'd like... However, if it requires proof that you're not a robot during the process, you may have the same problem... If you try to do so, let us know if it works... We normally like to avoid resetting people's passwords for them, merely for responsibility reasons of then knowing a user's password, which our software doesn't even let us see. But like Andrew said, we'll gladly help you out if you need us to, since you are having laptop issues...

I've forgotten my password is the issue

I'm sending you a private message right now with your temporary password... Use it to go into your account and change it if you can... If not (and it requires a reCaptcha), then feel free to use it for now until we get the update complete...
