lost my subscription

dear straightdope…

i subscribed today and it seems that i somehow lost my subscription, the boards are behaving as if i were a guest…this happened when i changed my email…

please help?

Less than 30 minutes after your post, I see your title as Member.

i still see that as well,
and in my CP it shows paid subscriptions and the length,

but when i goto start new thread or post a reply, it displays the “guest membership” card, (click here to continue posting as a guest, to subscribe click here etc)

this began happening immediately after i changed my email address…

So get into your CP and change the e-mail you have registered here and see if that fixes it? :wink: Or is that what caused the problems? Maybe e-mail **TubaDiva ** and see if she can help you? Her e-mail is tubadiva@aol.com

Another thought, check your e-mail and see if there is some kind of confirmation letter? Maybe you have yet to confirm the change?

i went to the new email and did the “reverification”

maybe ill try submitting back to the old email?
although id rather keep this main one…
the reason i didnt subscribe with my main email in the first place is because i ran a guest trial with it a while back and today it wouldnt allow me to register with it…

also,
as you can see, it no longer tracks my post count
nor provides a location, and other member functions are disabled

i’m in dope limbo!!!

Wait a bit and see if the reverifcation “takes”. Also, maybe log out, delete your cookie cache, and log back in to see if that fixes things? Write down TubaDiva’s e-mail address just in case. Good luck.

Bolding mine. Check bases with TubaDiva, I just saw that part. You are allowed only one username, so better let her know what is going on and get things straightened out. If you didn’t get banned with the other name things should be fine. I don’t know how they’ll fix things with your username situation, you paid for a subscription under this name? Good luck.

Try it now.

Wow, MessyPaint, I always thought we only joked about new member hazing! :wink:

Since no one else has done it yet, let me be the first: Welcome to the boards!

<i>how inconsiderate!</i>
