Current state of the Boards

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

    In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server
I found 22 other posters with similarly broken permissions I will attempt to batch update them if that doesn't work ground pounding manual entry it is.

EDIT: It worked.
Who were they and what did they do? Maybe there was a good reason you... I mean some other admin... revoked their editing privileges.. Perhaps you've let the cat out of the bag.

Perhaps some other admin changed their base permission set intentionally or unintentionally in an attempt to fix things and it didn't work out. (it actually wasn't me, NEVER change the base permissions all permissions in xenforo work on an inheritance system and if you aren't in the base group nothing works right)

Still, these 23 individuals should be monitored. You never know what they might be capable of editing now

What are the odds that some of my old, barned accounts work again?
There's a poster who lost his posting privileges on the Entertainment board two Summers ago and suddenly got them back a week or two ago. Unless it was just a big coincidence, the server upgrade seemingly reset permissions. So, your old accounts might work, at least if they were "barned" in the last few years.
 
...being one of the posters that the MODS have to keep an eye on is SOOOOOOO much more fun than being a MOD, it seems... :biglaugh:

When you've broken 20+ forum rules over the past 2 years, but haven't gotten hit with a warning/ban

My brother got an autograph from the soup nazi once. Not the one here, the Seinfield one.

He and my mom both mailed letters to Regis Philbin as well. My brother also got his autograph and my mom got nothing.
