I tried but it didn't work right. Then when I tried to log in it said I was "spam". Kind of hurt my feelings!

Don't feel bad about this. We have had some MASSIVE spammer problems on this site so we put something in place that checks against external spam tracking sites. We realize they sometimes give false positives (though it's kind of weird that it let it through for the forums and not the gallery, since it's the same check).

Tera, let me know if you need me to do anything. It's possible something got fouled up when I added the code to the gallery registration.

It would appear my entire ISP was on the spam list about 2 years ago or so if I'm reading that website right. It's cox cable so not a small isp either.

A good friend of mine tried registering and wound up getting banned after his email address was initially rejected even though he hasn't posted or done anything wrong. I'll provide details thru PM if needed.....he is a bit perplexed as to why he was banned, to be honest.

TeraS · « **Reply #125 on:** November 22, 2009, 12:11:22 AM »

Pass me the details please?

Tera

AStrangeGeek · « **Reply #126 on:** November 22, 2009, 01:46:49 AM »

Was this a rejection at the registration page or an actual ban? I haven't enacted any new bans for some time and I don't think any of the other mods or admins have, either.

When you send your details to Tera, please include the IP address that he's trying to connect from so I can check our ban tables and our htaccess files.

Hello there, I am having a problem.

I'm a new user, that just registered. I received my forum activation just fine. However, when i go to the link in the gallery activation email, it gives me the message: "This account can't be activated !"

If I'm doing something wrong, or just being a dumb-head, let me know... I didn't find anywhere that says you have to have a certian amount of posts to access the gallery or anything...

Please let me know what is going on...

Thanks,

SeeNaked

TeraS · « **Reply #130 on:** April 04, 2010, 07:00:33 AM »

Hello!

I don't see an account with your user ID...

Please make an account again, if that does not work PM me...

Hi,
I registered at the beginning of the month and can't log in to the gallery. I have registered twice for the gallery but I didn't get the activation e-mail either time. Please help.
Thanks,
Snoopy28.

TeraS · « **Reply #134 on:** April 12, 2010, 06:22:04 PM »

Send me a PM here on the forum with your email, User ID you want and a password...

Currently you are not listed as an inactive member in the Gallery so you need to either register again or I have to do that for you...

I appear to be having the script-cookies issue as well.

All the system says when I try to log in is "Couldn't log in. Try again."

It says this in all three of my browsers on this computer, when it worked just fine a few days before.

I remember encountering this issue before, and forget how I resolved it then.

EDIT: Never had cookies in IE or Firefox for the site, and cleared them - three times - in Chrome, to no success, to be clear.

AStrangeGeek · « **Reply #141 on:** April 17, 2011, 08:26:48 AM »

I looked at your account in the admin panel on the gallery and it looks intact. Not deactivated or accidentally banned or anything like that. Also looked at the IP address you're coming in on in case your ISP gave you one that happened to be banned, but that was clear as well.

Unfortunately I don't remember either how to resolve this. It happens so rarely and usually spontaneously clears itself up. If all else fails, we could try a password reset.

I gave that an attempt - sadly, to no avail, as the error still occurs, at least in Chrome, with the same inexplicable answer.

Very frustrating to say the least!

The problem is that the code gives the same response no matter what the problem is, whether it's anything from the user ID doesn't exist to a mistyped password (security thing to prevent brute-force attacks). However, I have verified your ID exists and is active with a direct SQL query to the database, and it looks in order.

So you tried a password reset? I could also try manually setting a password myself and emailing that to you.

The only other thing I can think of is to check that you don't have any rules in force in your browser that might prevent acceptance of certain cookies. Unlikely, I know, if you've tried several different browsers already, but it is the only thing I can think of at this point. Since your account looks okay, I can only speculate that it is having trouble establishing the persistent login session.

Any way you can try this from a different computer just to see what happens? Or a different IP address? It might help me narrow down what the problem is, because I want to know what's causing this.

EDIT: Also, what operating system are you doing this from?

This laptop is running Windows 7, and I just verified that I can log in without difficulty from my PC (which should have a very similar IP address), even though it warns that my browser does not accept script's cookies when I first hit the login page. I don't APPEAR to have any cookie-autorejection rules on any of my browsers.

AStrangeGeek · « **Reply #145 on:** April 18, 2011, 12:48:20 AM »

I get that dumb warning myself sometimes when I log into the gallery even when it logs me in just fine. I'll do some more investigation and see what I can come up with.

NekoIncardine · « **Reply #146 on:** April 18, 2011, 04:33:30 AM »

... And all of a sudden, it just works. What the huh.

The fact that this is recurring across several people is troubling, though...

Hey all. Im having the same issue logging in. My username is Mrhypnofan. I can get to the welcome page on the galleries, but then i click continue and i go back to the sign in page.Some help would be great, thanx.

TeraS · « **Reply #148 on:** June 29, 2011, 04:25:55 AM »

You are registered as a user on the Galleries, I just checked...

Are you sure of your password?

If yes, then what browser are you using?

Suddenly I have this issue, nothing changed between yesterday and today when it broke.

Edit: Suddenly works again, willing to consed that maybe the reboot fixed it.

PM me the password you are using and I'll reset your account and see if that solves the problem...

Hiya! I'm not sure where I should have posted this, so I put it right here.
Whenever I try to access the galleries, I have to log in. When I try to, it tells me in red letters * Couldn't log in *. Changing my password didn't help. I'm using iOS Safari right now.

Evening all. I'd like to start this by thanking everyone who makes this place possible and keeps it running; this is a great place and I'm a little sorry it took me so long to stop lurking here.

Having said that, I'm having an issue that's a variation of the previously mentioned ones. I'm trying to register on the gallery, but its saying that my email is already in use on the gallery. The issue is that when I try to send myself a password reminder, it says that there isn't an account with that email. Weird, I know... I went back and double-checked my emails; I never received one from the gallery side of the house. Admin team, if you have the time could you give me a hand here? I'm kinda stuck here, and would appreciate a hand. Thanks!
