I have added your email to the permitted list, so can you please register that when you get a chance? The activation email will go to your gmail account. Any further problems, please let us know.

Kitestyle2 Posted 24, November 2011 Report Share Posted 24, November 2011 Hey Dish, I found this restriction a bit awkward to be honest, and easy to circumvent anyway. I couldn't sign up (gmail accounts) so I went to an instant mail site (think 10 minute mail, etc) and used that, which is potentially far more dodgy than hotmail etc. So you might want to consider closing that door. I would have thought gmail was a class above the other two as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dank Posted 9, April 2012 Report Share Posted 9, April 2012 Hey dish, Do people see the above warning re: free email accounts when they get rejected using them to register? The reason I'm asking is because someone from Whirlpool wants to join but cannot: http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-re ... &p=10#r186 Just FYI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dish Posted 10, April 2012 Author Report Share Posted 10, April 2012 Hey there Dan, Thanks for the heads up. What members don't see are the posts awaiting approval from guests in this thread. There are 3 of them above your message in fact... however, for reasons unknown, we (Admin) don't seem to get notified of their posts unless we specifically look at the thread, and I only did so because I noticed this thread was highlighted in the "View Active Topics" list after your reply. I know it seems draconian, and there must be better ways of blocking spammers, but it has so far been the best way of stopping the onslaught of the unwanted types who come here to spout crap about cheap prescription medication and how to enlarge the male appendage LOL BMV's comment about having to register to contact us isn't entirely accurate. I can be contacted via email (as many others in a similar position have done) or a message can be left as a guest, but as stated above we aren't informed of it unless we specifically look at the thread. I'll look into the (in)ability for guests to contact Admins. I have just added BMV's email to the 'safe list' and have informed him as such. I'll see if my subscribing to this topic will aid in guests' future posts being flagged for attention. Thanks again Cheers, Dish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiapoco Posted 10, April 2012 Report Share Posted 10, April 2012 Hey Dish to register for the website I had to use an email address I barely use.. wondering even though I'm a member now - am I able to change my associated email address to my hotmail one? ****@hotmail.com is the one I want. *******@******.com is the one I currently have. Anyway let me know Cheers Chiapoco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dank Posted 21, April 2012 Report Share Posted 21, April 2012 Hey there Dan, Thanks for the heads up. What members don't see are the posts awaiting approval from guests in this thread.

No worries Dish! I guess there is some tricky stuff going on in the background to have those posts be invisible to your average member, and hopefully that same concept works with the thread subscription! just out of interest, have you guys trialled some variation of Captcha, or whichever favour of the month that does a good job against spambots?

Dish Posted 26, November 2012 Author Report Share Posted 26, November 2012 Hi everyone, Please note that we're experiencing some strange email issues. Seems that there are NO outgoing emails at present, for activations, reactivations or email change confirmations, and also subscribed topic notifications, but anything sent to our domain is getting directed correctly. This means that all activations will have to be done manually by the Admin team. I've received a number of requests already over the last couple of weeks, and I get through them as quickly as time allows me. To compound matters, the search panel for Admins is not working correctly either... so if you do contact me, please inform me of both your username and email address, especially if you have tried registering more than once. I will delete any multiples, but again, please tell me what they are as I'm not a mind reader LOL Appreciate your patience and understanding, and if you know of someone that has tried registering please let me know too. Cheers, Dish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Floww Posted 14, April 2017 Report Share Posted 14, April 2017 Hi, I'm also having troubles re-registering with the forum I had previously registered a few years back (username = 'Floww' and email = glebe_gulag@internode.on.net). No idea what my password is as I've been sans RS for four years. If I try to get a password reset, the farthest I get is an email with the reset link, but then I never get the actual new password.

Bingle Posted 20, February 2019 Report Share Posted 20, February 2019 Hi, I haven't been receiving email notifications for threads I follow for months. I've checked my account settings a number of times and they're correct AFAIK. Any advice someone can offer to help get the emails happening again would be gratefully received.
