Nice looking ship!! Can't help think that was how the Constrictor should have looked - that sort of nasty mean "Don't mess with me or I will stamp on your face" look!

P.S. Before anyone starts welcoming me to this delightful forum, I was 'Star Gazer' until my registration decided to implode!

Hi (No) Star Gazer… it must feel strange being ‘harmless’ again.
How did your registration implode… any idea?

StarGazer... rings a bell. Weren't you a member here when Lave Space Station, was just some solar panels, a few docking ports, a science lab and half dozen habitation modules? Or perhaps I have you confused with someone else.

You are still here if this is you. Must be possible to fix somehow.
Gentlemen?

I wonder if Star Gazer’s problem was changing his e-mail address… didn’t something similar happen to Cmd. Cheyd a while ago?

Yeah... I forgot my password (sad!) and realised that I had registered under a (now) defunct Email a/c... ....sooooo... I tried the 'I've forgotten..etc..send me...' ...and it worked!!

In my excitement, I tried to change both the abstract new password and the Email address in the same breath... SERIOUS error in judgement... :cry:

It told me only an administrator could save me now! (Hallelujah! it's a miracle!... ...sorry...! ) :lol:

Unfortunately, since I couldn't log-in, I couldn't contact the administrator... strange that the phpBB system doesn't realise this absurdity!

You're lucky. In fact both Daddy Hoggy and El Viejo are administrators now. Perhaps you can persuade them to use their newly-gained powers? :wink:

Oh, and welcome back, of course! Long time no see. :D Have you considered to come on-board the Personalities.oxp?

I should add that my remit as administrator is solely for the purposes of spam/spambot removal. Even if I knew enough about forum admin to help Star Gazer, I doubt that I have the permissions to do so (and I’m certainly not going to try tinkering).

I wonder if I should get some of those new powers used to split this thread? :evil:

Yeah, my apologies Thargoid... this is was your Vortex thread.

Split from Vortex discussion, as per Thargoid's wishes.

Thank you :)

And welcome back Star Gazer.

Whatever you do, don't split the Personalities.oxp thread... the results could be disastrous! :shock:

Ahhh... excellent... it's good to know my eccentricities can eventually lead to such madness!!

I administer a phpBB elsewhere, and I'm not sure what has happened and how you rectify it. My first point of call would be to see if the 'User' was still defined as 'Active' on the main profile page.

ohhh... ...and thank you, Thargoid and others for the welcome back. I'll take a look at Personalities and see what I can do!
