Attention site moderators/administrators - RE: Names/identities/histories

[Anon1751344485]

I see that some have successfully been migrated over, including their histories etc. I see here and elsewhere that many others have not.

I'm in the latter category and would like some help reclaiming my identity, I'm sure others would as well.

Could someone in a position of knowledge and responsibility please respond to this and offer us some help? It would be greatly appreciated.

I got my name but my history is gone.

 

[kyfanrob]

Same, got my username but not the history

Bump

 

[howitis_rivals115807]

i was with the original site before it moved to yahoo/rivals. going to be interesting to see where the main UK basketball site ends up this time.

I got my name but not my history and I can’t edit my avatar.

I can't edit mine either. Sucks

 

[Ima Alien]

I had to sign in with Google. It would not accept my email address or password that I used on the previous site. I know they are correct! It was my understanding that we could use the same sign in credentials here. HELP!!!

 

[Ima Alien]

Well, I see that it did put my correct user name up there, but it has "new member" after the name. So I guess we have to start over? It doesn't matter much to me since I didn't have that many posts using this user name, but I had many more with my previous account and have been with Rafters since the move from Wildcat Faithful.

I remember the old Wildcat Faithful.

Same.

[Ima Alien]

It was the hot spot in town before Rupp's Rafters. From there I remember a move to The Cat's Pause, and then a split to The Cat's Pause and Cats Illustrated. At least I think that's how it happened. (I drank a lot in those days).

 

[BigBlueGuru]

This has been happening with every merger. I have been a member since the original Cats Pause site and after every merger I lost all my post counts and status

 

[PoBilly]

Here I have been pobilly for years. My name at Rupp Rafters was Blue Cincy. Can someone put Blue Cicny history on Pobilly? I am Pobilly in some form on all the other forums I use.

 

[fisherscatfan]

Same with regarding name and history.

 

[lexiscanis123]

Beware of a fraudulent legalbeagle123 running around out there somewhere.

 

[Skyguy27]

Welcome to the new age. Is the histories gone?

 

[John Henry]

Welcome to the new age. Is the histories gone?

We have entered an era where history is meaningless. What we posted in 2003 is ancient history.

Just trying this for the first time with Google myself. Let's see what this looks like...

Edit: Well, at least my name transferred over and it shows my original date I joined way back in 2003. I guess the other history is no more.

 

[KapitalCat]

I'm a moderator here and have many of the same questions. We all woke up in the same boat. I'm still trying to figure out how to use the mod functions. On the HOB Justin posted a "tweet" from Shannon Terry. His response to the tweet was "Cats Illustrated stuff will be merged relatively soon given that it's got some of the bigger boards"

 

[Blueaz]

I got my name but not my history and I can’t edit my avatar.

I was able, by going to profile and then putting cursor over the avatar and clicking that way

Right on, thank you for the info. I hope things are taken care of soon.

 

[Rob stacy]

Is there a form to fill out... Or are the matching email addresses.... How do you go about getting your old name and post counts back?

 

[nssdigitalchumps]

Same, got my username but not the history

You have a clean slate!

 

[KentuckyMildCats]

This **** sucks

 

[kyfanrob]

Our history of posts is not the only thing gone

How do you get the username back? I can’t edit or change it.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Using Gmail/Google and NOT typing in my email, was what got me back.

I think.

Edit: ok has my username and join date.. but no icon and post history. Which kind of sucks. But I get that these things arent going to transition nicely

 

[Anon1751383238]

I’ve tried everything to change my name, I may forever be Anon

 

[Anon1751547186]

Same. In my profile it has my old username but when I post here, I'm Mr. Anonymous. This freaking sucks.

I can edit my avatar, but not my username. I hope someone figures out how we can do that. Like you, I changed my username and my profile, but when I come back to the board, it still has me as Anon .. .and a string of numbers. I would like to change it to [ala_kat2]

 

[Anon1751590269]

Neither my name or history came. It kinda reminds me of the walking dead. I am anon (neegan).

 

[@BlueWorldOrder74]

All - try going to hamburger on top left, click on username, click on profile, scroll down and change password and username. Log out. Log in with new password. Post. Hopefully see new username.

 

[Anon1751503539]

Test

 

[Anon1751503539]

How do you get your old username? The only login allowed is with a damn email and password. What a clusterF

 

[Anon1751503539]

Tanks for the link but somebody is using my old name, which seems unlikely. And it won’t let me change to a new one. Won’t allow me to enter an email address which is required to login.

I give up

 

[deezbiguns]

I’ve tried everything to change my name, I may forever be Anon

Scratch that. Couldn’t change my name. What a mess

 

[DraftCat_rivals185658]

As a mod... I'm also in the same boat as everyone else. I got nothing but a janked up username.

 

[mcwildcats04]

That was the only option I saw initially and it didn't work for me. But, if you look closer there's also an option to log in with Google. I was able to log in that way and see my old username.
