Any WoS admins on here?
Posted: Tue Jun 12, 2018 9:36 pm
I'm in need of a wee bit of assistance...
Have been locked out of my World of Spectrum account for a while. Forgot how it happened, iirc logging in didn't work any more after updating my e-mail address. Since I don't post there often & was busy with other things anyway, went into read-only mode for (quite) a while.
I tried the password reset option a # of times, relevant link gets sent to the correct (new) e-mail address, and setting a new password appears to work (although I don't get a clear confirmation new password was set). BUT... then logging in with the new password does not work. "Sorry, permission denied". I've tried both old & new passwords, different browsers (using Chromium & Firefox on Linux here). Various attempts - no cigar.
There's an e-mail form on the WoS site here, which -at least for me- also didn't work. Grrr....
So I feel out of options, hence asking for help here. Especially some way to contact a WoS admin directly (e-mail address) would be appreciated. Don't know what's going on.. maybe my account got flagged somehow, or my user's entry in some database got corrupted? For the record: these problems are limited to WoS site only, I do NOT have any issues logging in / using other sites.
