Lackadaisydragon, a good friend and master of the zen, is having problems logging into the forum. He himself is deciding to deal with this situation by just hopping into a forum-only name for this considering his original name can still access the mainsite and art etc. But I want to lend a helping hand and ask if you guys can fix this situation.

I think I have a hunch what the problem is. He says it's been deactivated, and that's probly due to the fact he hasent been around as much as I have. And that's because of the massive heat-wave over where he lives that is preventing him from getting on the computer for more than thirty minutes. He is even having trouble getting on here through his 3DS at times due to the heat.

Still though if it isnt that, either way could you guys reactivate his account? He's still an active user...just that he's been playing xbox more than usual due to the summer heatwave. xP

You're correct to guess that the problem was isolated to the forumside of his account - which was switched off. Fixed.

He need to re-validate his email to access the forums.

Part of the problem with how forum access is implemented is that the phpBB admin CP shows only the combined account status, so when it says "no" it could be either due to forumside access being specificall disabled or email address not validated -- the latter being more common, but it's impossible to tell which based solely on the CP.

It's probly his e-mail. After all, he's been accessing FAC via his 3DS half of the time considering due to the massive heat; he can only be on his comp so long. xX

I'll give him this info so hopefully he can fix this.

And thanks a ton for helping fix this, everyone.
