Title: Newly registered user?
Post by: [Rstar]Paul on January 23, 2012, 03:03:28 am
Hi,

It seems like SMF services for registering users have stopped processing with mostly every SMF forums.
If you need your account activated, please do speak to me and I'll be more than happy to activate your account along with other staff. If your name sounds familiar to us, it will be activated straight away automatically.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but it seems like SMF has some problems with it.
We hope this problem is to be fixed.

I have no issues with ARFD forums. SMF itself has no way to block any registrations on a forum as the process is not linked in any way to any outside sites unless you are using mods. Are there any anti-spam mods installed? I know Gandalf was preferring the use of the Bad Behavior mod at one point. Is that still installed?

No, mods don't matter.

This is happening to several forums as ADF and Rockstars. And other forums are experiencing connection issues.
Same with Argonath forums, Axis changed his password around 2 days ago and didn't get an email for a confirmation until a forum admin did it manually.

This is happening in several forums, Paul is correct.
As he mentioned, Axis had this problem in the main forum as well.

Upon further looking, it turns out the email server is having issues. Try and wait it out guys. When Gandalf is back I'll try to poke him. :cop:

I believe the ADF forum is down due to the owner of the forum having some RL issues. I dont know why he would need to take it down, but that remains unknown.

(If anyone can contact Ben_Hells, would be great! :D)

Ben and Mia are away right now due to some personal RL issues as well. ADF should be working, however.
