New Green Ronin Forums! [Action Required]

Okay. That time it worked. I'm in. Thank you.

We recently moved our servers. After the move we noticed that since we'd moved our mail server we'd wound up on Trend Micro's blacklist. Our server wasn't exactly where it had been, and they just assumed "Spam" and blacklisted us.
The result was that half the time our e-mail sent without an issue, the other half the time we hit Trend Micro and were blocked.

Not sure if it could be relevant to this situation, but it might be worth checking to see if the reset e-mails are bouncing back to the server and if they're being blocked from a common source.

Wasn't to hard to get ourselves off the blacklist after we figured out what happened.

I successfully changed my password and can log in, but have no permissions to post...at all

"You may not post new threads
You may not post replies
You may not post attachments
You may not edit your posts"

ditto for me.

Looks like I'm in this boat as well.

How did you get Evan to change your emails? I've tried reaching him on this thread. No answer. I've tried PMing him. Hasn't even looked at my PM.

He does mention his email address a bit up. It's his name plus "greenronin.com", I believe.

And also realize that at a change like this, there are probably a LOT of PMs in his inbox right now.

[Illusionista]

Well, we'll see how that works. Sent him an email.

First, thanks to everyone for getting set up on the new forums and for letting us know when things aren't working the way they're supposed to. Rest assured, it will all get sorted out. No one will be left behind, we won't suddenly lock the doors Atomic Thinktank and leave you high and dry. We <3 you guys.

Please be patient as Evan works to iron things out. He's only one person and the only one working on this transfer, he doesn't have any back-up minions, unless you count his two precocious younglings (but I don't think they're being allowed to help Daddy manage databases yet).

Two updates that he has posted about the new forums:

1) The character limit was a default setting that he has now removed. Post your novels!
2) The avatar setting hasn't been enabled yet but it will be.

I've also seen a few people asking on Facebook and elsewhere if the messages they've gotten are for real or some sort of new phishing scam, so I'd really appreciate it if you could speak up and reassure people if you see them asking in other places where we might not see them.

Thanks all!

I tried resetting my password a couple of times last night and again today. I have not received any emails and I checked my spam folder.

Sent an e-mail as a last resort. Hopefully can get things cleared up.

Question regarding the new forums: One advantage of these forums is that we constantly have the ability to edit our threads no matter how old the post was. It's especially useful for those of us with ongoing topics that want to edit the initial post, include links to posts of importance within the topic, etc. Will the new board support this feature, or will it be like RPG.net where you lose the ability to edit a post after X amount of time?

Nothing official yet, but a few people have confirmed that this is a setting which can be changed. I suspect they'll let us modify eternally. Currently, it's not possible to edit the title of a post once you make it, but hopefully that will also be enabled.

Update: You can edit the titles by going advanced, but much like with the Lone Wolf forums, it doesn't change the title on the list of topics.

No response yet. I understand people do have to sleep though.

I'm considering starting my own Apocalypse Log...

Great Exodus, Day 2: The "No New E-Mails" continues to mock me.

Bah, sleep is for the weak. When the Sandman comes, put him in a headlock and make him eat his own dust
