So I tried to log on to the forums with an some older puppets, but got an error message saying that an email could not be sent to the email address I supplied (hotrodia@gmail.com, which works just fine for...several...other accounts). Then I retried it and got the message below...

I got the same message both times with my HotRodia III account.

Now today I had trouble getting on to the forums with my HotRodia account. :mad: I got the general "there was a problem logging you into the forums" message.

I get that a lot. I hit "Continue to forums" and it always works then.

OOC: That particular error message isn't what's really the problem, Heiligkeit (though it was annoying). :) I obviously got on despite the message. The other two nations are a different story. I was unable to get on at all with HotRodia II and HotRodia III.

What puzzles me is that I can get on with this puppet nation and not the other two. :confused:

This time it actually sent me the e-mail. Yay! Thanks to whoever did it, whether Mod or God. :)

Edit: Now if it will actually log me on with the puppet that would be great. :(

Ah...that's better. I'm not sure why it didn't work the first time. I intended to post with HotRodia II but ended up with HotRodia.

Now to test the HotRodia III.

Jolt has a tendency to blow up sometimes for no particular reason, then it fixes itself a few minutes later. It's as bad as Microsoft. Not as bad as Windows ME, though...

After deleting a bunch of temporary files...

...it worked.

Today it says the e-mail is valid, whereas before it said it couldn't send an e-mail. Bah.

I am getting a far more unsettling message for my puppet Phoenix Dynamix....
