Forum Deleted

by Crow Hogan January 14th 2012, 1:45 pm

So guys, I need help.

One of my admins deleted my forum without asking me (I know ._.) and I got some mails, saying that I can restore it by going to a link.
Then they ask for my CREATION mail and CREATION password.
I have both, enter both, and it says, that my informations are wrong.
Now you might think: "You forgot the password", but I didn't. I always use the same pass, and I'd never forget it.
So, what can I do? Can any admin restore my forum or help me in any way?

I'd really appreciate your help. Our forum was almost 24 hours old and we already had over 100 users. :c

Ty for reading and hopefully helping.

did you use the username and password when you created the forum??

your the founder of the forum right??

what was the link given to you?

by Crow Hogan January 14th 2012, 1:52 pm

Yes, I used the mail I used when my forum was created, as well as the pass I used when I created it.

I'm the founder.

And the link is https://www.forumotion.com/en/utils/

Did they know your password ?

by Crow Hogan January 14th 2012, 1:57 pm

No one knew my pass. Besides, I got mails, saying that my admin Blah (I.P. blahblah) wanted to delete it.

I can try it again. I've tried it like 10 times already, but I can try it again.

Only the founder can see the Forum Deletion in the Admin Panel... So they used your account to delete the forum ! This means that they knew your password which they now have changed to their own...

Are you sure?

It should still work, because if you click on the link I posted, they ask for the pass used when the forum was CREATED. This means, it's the pass I used and even if they changed it now, my old pass should work.

Also, why does every mail say, that the admin is trying to delete it and not me?
If he deleted it using my acc, shouldn't I get a mail saying that I deleted my own forum? o:

Crow Hogan, two things here:

Please don't use colour and keep to the default text. This is reserved for the staff for moderation.

And:

Please also change your title to something more related to your problem. I suggest 'Forum deleted'.

Can you provide your forum URL for us to see?

by Crow Hogan January 14th 2012, 2:41 pm

Oh okay. Didn't know, I always use indigo, but well.

The forum's URL is/was: futureworlda.forumotion.me

But it'll say that it was deleted.
Can you do something? Since you're staff.

by Base January 14th 2012, 2:46 pm

It's okay, now you know the rules. Wink

When I visit the link you gave me, it redirects me to this forum: http://futureworlda.forum-animation.com/

Is that your forum?

by Crow Hogan January 14th 2012, 2:50 pm

Uhm weeeell..my friend just re-made the forum, because he wants to start all over again. ._.
Our forum looked exactly like this one + over 100 members + some banners.

I think you understand why I'm trying to restore the other one.

by Base January 14th 2012, 2:53 pm

Ah, right...

And you're sure you can't restore the old forum using the utilities: https://www.forumotion.com/en/utils/ ? Are you able to get into the tools?

by Crow Hogan January 14th 2012, 2:59 pm

That's what I tried already. but it's not working. /:
It says that the informations I used are wrong. Uhm, if you can't do anything, then we'll just have to start over again..
And this time I'll use the ban hammer.

This guy who deleted or tried to delete it, is always trying to destroy everything we do. idk what to do. ._.

by Base January 14th 2012, 3:03 pm

I won't be able to do anything.

Have you also tried using the forum address instead of the founding email address? Please also note that you will need to use the password you used when you created the forum.

by Crow Hogan January 14th 2012, 3:08 pm

I know that already..I tried many different combinations.

I was the founder, so I tried to restore it..uh well.
Everything again then. :c

But that's very sad..over 100 users in under 24 hours. That's just..derp.

Well, anyways, thanks for helping!
Now I'm a pissed Crow.

Sry the word.
