Mnemosyne:

If mnemosyne is already taken, the only way you can use that name at Ezboard is to register a local name for that particular board instead of a global name. However, the only disadvantage is you won’t be able to post at other ezboards in the system.

If you want a global account, I suggest adding a number after the name. 🙂

**Cherry** , what are you trying to register under? Anything special included, such as \_ + \* or something like that? Is it a global account? If so, then I believe you have to register a local account for the board, unfortunately.

I hope that fixes your problem and we’ll be seeing you soon at the board! 🙂

Coldfire may be joining the actual moderator team soon, thanks to a board member emailing me and suggesting a foreign moderator. For when us Canucks are off dozing about ham and hockey, to protect the forum.

So far we haven’t had any troublemakers, but it would be noce knowing that we aren’t completely open to attack during a good protion of our night.

Whoo hoo! I already have an Ezboard ID so I’ll just use it there instead of making a whole new one… I’ll be Heart of Tears there when I pop in

Hmm. Seems I indicated in my last post that Coldy had already agreed or something, which wasn’t what I meant to imply. Also, moderator positions are still avaliable now, you cans still contact me thru email or IM.

I never got a confirmation email. I couldn’t get it to send me another one. I couldn’t trick it into sending me a forgotten password email, either. I created a local account and can’t log in from the board.

**scott evil** , what email provider were you using? I dunno if it would help, but perhaps(not trying to ask too much) register a hotmail account? I don’t know why it wouldn’t let you in, though. I was suggesting hotmail because perhaps your current service is having issues with getting mail from eZboard.

Hi Aslan,  
I just enrolled, and if you still need a mod feel free to sign me up! I would be honoured.

Also, can I suggest a new forum? How about a Canadian Deals forum for us canucks to share links to canadian on-line deals, as well as member buy/sell/trade. It cheeses me off surfing other boards and seeing all sorts of great links but all of them american!

Thanks for the ideas and offers of help. You can be the mod for that forum, if you wish.

Scott Evil, I don’t know what is happening. I think I’ll have the problem fixed soon, tho’.

Well, I’ve sent you an email with your account info. I had to register it myself, and also get another hotmail account, don’t know why it didn’t work for you. Have a good time at Canadope. 🙂
