Registration/Login Issues: Maintenance Scheduled Friday 2100 PST
-
Update: I’m going to take down the forum for a version upgrade Friday night at 2100 PST. Testing today yielded positive results including folks that had trouble earlier being able to login on the development site.
Should only be down a half hour
Our traffic has literally quadrupled since the actual death of Kinja so the setup is struggling a bit.
If you're having registration or login issues, disable ad blocker, refresh the page and try again. Doing this a couple times will usually let you in.
I'm working on the underlying problem still - hopefully have it fixed in the next day or so.
Edit @Jb-boin found a bug report for our exact issue. It is supposed to be fixed in the next release. Be patient in the meantime and try the workarounds listed above and below.
-
I was having trouble setting up my account. Turns out, my Pi.Hole was blocking something on the registration page. Disabling it for a few minutes worked perfectly.

Bots are watching us?
-
@jminer Thanks again for keeping this safe haven running for us.
-
-
WOW traffic jumped.
-
Might be an anecdotal observation, but I was unable to register using my kinja/previous Oppositelock username. Not sure if there's some sort of issue with any data that was ported over?
-
@3v_money I haven't brought over any data - there is a cap on length of the username but I don't remember what it is right now.
-
@jminer Interesting, certainly anecdotal then. Good luck on sorting it out; overall pumped to have the new platform available.
-
@3v_money Try the adblocker fix, worked for me.
-
It took me several attempts, and eventually I went into incognito mode on Chrome to disable all of the adblockers and other crap, and after two failed attempts I was able to establish an account.

@gamecat235 GAMECAT PLAYS ONCE AGAIN!!!
I mean... That might be overstating it. But Oppo was home for a LONG time. I'm not 100% ready to let go. Though I'll probably mostly be absent or in lurk mode, much like the last couple of years anyway. LOL
-
@gamecat235 Better than nothing, I suppose. Guess it really is my turn.
-
@someassemblyrequired I ended up having to register in the Edge browser and switch back over to Chrome (login worked fine for me there). Turned off Ad-Blocker on Chrome for the site as well for good measure.
-
Thanks for all the work to get us here @jminer and team!

@Hooker We are the bots

Question, I do not have Show Email checked but I see it is there in my profile. Am I doing something wrong?
-
@racinbob it is just visible to you and admins. Checked it from my test account I don't see anything.

Too early to blame Kinja?
