    I am taking over as the administrator of my association's website and there was a forum setup on niceboard.com and the founder of that board has left our association 2 years ago and we would like to gain access to this board to clean out the spam posts and possibly cancel that account. Please let me know how to go about this process.

    Thank you

    In progress I have read that section

    Unfortunately I can't get registered to that forum to be able to get access to the screen shots that are listed. I can send screen shots showing that the one and only admin account has not been accessed since March 2013.

    If these screen shots are acceptable, do I send this a PM to one of those people or in some other format?

    Thank you

    ....and when you do that she will give you one of those links and do nothing else even with pm's Crying or Very sad

    If I did that at Cern a black hole would have made this place go over the event horizon jocolor

    Hello,.
    Buttercup's pms should be enabled again. You can now send her the pm, but be advised that she is out sick until Monday. Which is likely when she will read it and respond to you. Wink

    Well Brandon I have no problem with that and I have so far got more replies from you.

    I don't know how much she actually has to do here or if it is from home but I am the type that can't take a day off sick or not and tend to even skip sleeping (just did a 28 hour long time working many computers for a project called *ATLAS* at the Large Hadron Collider because I just can't just give up or let it slide)

    (in fact I think I have the flu right now Confused )

    BUT I hope she is ok and that I will actually get this taken care of so I can take this off my list of computer work.

    Have a fine day Brandon........back to work I go......
