The latest stats says only 6 registered users; 4 bots, Ziggy and me. You (Hibi), were not listed as well as many other users that appear to be log-in now.
It was extremely hard for Lorna to join, and it took me 4 times. Maybe more would apply if it was easier to sign up.
Gosh, I hope not. It would break my heart to be "booted" , however briefly, from here, and I would hate to see it happen to anyone else either. We are like a big family around here; we care for each other.Hibi wrote: ↑February 27th, 2024, 1:12 pmYes, Nellie also appears to have been given the boot. I wonder who's next? I'm starting to wonder if all of us will be "booted" out of here. With so many people having problems joining here I'm dreading getting the "boot"! I was a member from years ago, so I escaped that problem when TCM went down.
I always used the "remember me" option.CinemaInternational wrote: ↑February 27th, 2024, 4:26 pm Skimpole, do you regularly log in and out every day, or do you use the computer's option to "remember me"? I'm wondering if this has any bearing on your account disappearing.
YES. And I was listed as registered earlier today. WTH?jamesjazzguitar wrote: ↑February 27th, 2024, 4:20 pmThe latest stats says only 6 registered users; 4 bots, Ziggy and me. You (Hibi), were not listed as well as many other users that appear to be log-in now.
Hibi; do you log on to this forum as a registered user?
SIGH. Yes, I forgot about that.CinemaInternational wrote: ↑February 27th, 2024, 4:24 pmIt was extremely hard for Lorna to join, and it took me 4 times. Maybe more would apply if it was easier to sign up.
How does one even do that? They log in as a guest and not themselves? You wouldn't be able to post then! Where's the fun in that???Swithin wrote: ↑February 27th, 2024, 5:26 pm I log in and log out. My computer remembers my details. When I am logged in, "Swithin" appears at the bottom of the main page, and the page I am looking at. One can see other names logged in, but some posters don't want their names shown, so they just show up as "guest" when they're logged in. I'm curious as to why some presumably sensitive creatures don't want their names shown. But I think many of us allow our names to be shown, e.g. Swithin, Hibi, KayFrancis, Kingrat, Holden, etc.
I have vowed to never forget my password anymore, as it always takes 8 years for the site to email me the link to reset it. I recall the sign-up process being a tad tricky for me also.CinemaInternational wrote: ↑February 27th, 2024, 4:24 pmIt was extremely hard for Lorna to join, and it took me 4 times.
