Q. Why can’t I join.
A. Because membership is probably closed at the moment. If it’s not, have you tried signing up here http://news04.blogfootball.com/member/signup ?
If it is closed, and you really want to join email me, mac@heroesandvillains.net directly and I may add you to our membership.
Q. I’m a member why can’t I login?
A. There is no reason why you shouldn’t be able to login. Unless of course you've been banned.
Please ensure that you are logging in at the correct site. To post on the news site you need to be a member and login here: http://news.blogfootball.com/member/login
If you're not a member the system will say so. You may be using an incorrect/mispelled email address.
Q. I have forgotten my password?
A. Simply type in your email address here, news site you need to be a member and login here: http://news.blogfootball.com/member/login, and press the login button. Your password will automatically be emailed to you.
Q. I can’t post a reply or create a topic?
A. Are you a member? If not you’ll have to join. See question above.
A. Are you signed in? If not you’ll have to sign in. See question above.
A. Are you getting an “referer” error. If so, what URL is displayed in the Address bar? Is it something beginning with http://news.blogfootball.com/ ? If not click on that link now. You need to ensure that you're not trapped within a frameset. This may be my fault, and I apologise. It's the way I set the site up. Sorry.
A. If all this fails then I really do believe that it's down to the configuration of your machine/network. Are cookies enabled on you machine correctly or are you behind a firewall? Was it working fine before you installed something on your PC? If yes, you’re on your own sorting this out, sorry. You could try looking on this thread.
Finally......
If you still can’t login and post and have tried what I’ve said above then please email me, mac@heroesandvillains.net, telling me what you’ve tried, what’s failed, what page you were on and what error message, if any, you received, what date/time did it happen? If you don’t do this I’m afraid I can’t help you, since the solutions to the questions above solve 99% of normal login/posting problems. Since your's is not a "normal" problem I need more information than "I can't log in" to help solve it.
Discuss this....
