Default User status and post count

For some reason even when I'm logged in, my posts show my user status as guest. Post count is N/A. I've been a member since Mar and haven't posted much, but figured I'd have a registered user status by now.

Thanks.

Definitely strange... can you send private messages? If so, send one to the user "Brains" and explain your situation to him.

Did you get my replies? I think I might have found a problem, but have to dig into it a little further.

Are you asking if I received a reply to my PM? I did not. Perhaps my PM's aren't working correctly either?

Thanks for the assistance,

John

Are the PM's being bounced back? My PM box is empty except for the copy of the PM I sent to Brains yesterday.

Haven't figured out exactly why yet, but I see a new similar account name JJKJ2 .. if that's you, go ahead and use the new account and I'll update your username and retire the old account.

How odd. It says 'JJKJxxx' as the username when viewing the thread in normal display, but says 'JJKJ' as the username when viewing the thread in reply mode.

Arrrr! I'm not trying to be trouble guys, really! I'm subscribed to several other boards and never had trouble, honest. Brains, I figured it might be easier to just drop this userID and sign up under a new one JJKJ2. Unfortunately during the registration process, it would not let me use the same email addy that I had listed for my original userID of JJKJ. I then tried to complete registration for JJKJ2 with my .mil email address. For some reason, either on the mil server side or on your end, the confirmation email did not make it through. So now my status is: JJKJ--not working as previously stated; JJKJ2--can't complete the registration process due to confirmation email being blocked or not sent.

Again, I'm really sorry for the trouble. I just want to be able to post normally become one of the LS1Tech masses.

Thanks,

John

Hey, no problem man -- something is screwy with that account for sure. When I pull it up in the admin screens, it "forgets" your user id somehow -- even though its there. Strange indeed. I'll swap the new jjkj2 account over to jjkj, activate it, and we'll just drop the old one. I'll put your old non-.mil email addy on it too, because the military's spam filter is probably chewing the activation email as spam.

Sweet, JJKJ is now up and working. I really appreciate the help Brains. The account JJKJold can now be deleted. I think it is still active because when I did the account password reset, I got two emails from LS1tech one for JJKJ and one for JJKJold.

Again, thanks for the help, now back to being one of the masses.
