Cliff Ton 8,976 Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 4 hours ago, Cliff Ton said: I've emailed Brew using his external email address (not connected to Nottstalgia) in case there was a problem with logging in to his account, or the recent software update. I've established contact with Brew and he is still alive and kicking. The problem is being able to log in (or not). Fault-finding is currently underway. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ360 5,522 Posted January 8 Author Report Share Posted January 8 Excellent news! IYSWIM.. For what it's worth, after that last 'upgrade'..when I couldn't log in.. I downloaded a free VPN, which allowed me to log in..presumably because it obscured my IP address. I don't need to use it now. It was Windscribe.. but there are many others. Meanwhile.. I imagine that Brew is spitting feathers, being unable to correct my political ramblings. 5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IAN FINN 261 Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 While on the topic of where is Brew does anyone know what happened to Mick2me? Is he the person who started nottsalgia? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ360 5,522 Posted January 10 Author Report Share Posted January 10 I believe that Mick did indeed start the site. I've met him a couple of times.. but not for a few years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Ton 8,976 Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 Without giving away any secrets, can you explain what you did to enable your return ? Did you find you were doing something wrong ? The information might be useful in any future cases. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brew 4,205 Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 I locked myself out by trying to change my password. To confirm, and for security, the site sends an E-mail for verification - except it didn't and I couldn't log in until it did. Scratting around I found an E-mail addy for a member but no reply, it's probably defunct. Created a faux Facebook account and went the to the Nottstalgia page to try and make contact but it also appears to be defunct, last post 2019, sent a message anyway. Somtime later a reply said a ticket raised with Invision, no indication who the reply was from. I tried making a second account but it failed, again not sending send the necessary mail. In an idle moment tried my orginal Brew account, clicked 'resend verification email', for the umpteenth time and lo, it worked! I did absolutrly nothing, made no changes on my PC. Not sure if the site has changed the passowrd and content to let sleeping dogs lie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
