This board is not impressive at all and it sucks that after posting on the old board for 25 years, we now have this. I'm not thrilled.

Since the epic crap fest on our old board, MANY of us moved over to Wildcat Nation and it's been a really good experience. They also seem to appreciate the users of their site.... imagine that!

Go to the 3 lines in top left. Click on your pic. Scroll down thru the adds and go to profile. I was able to change my username there. I’m currently on my phone. I can only access On3 via my phone. I’m unable to on my laptop. I know things are frustrating. I share that. I detest change. But I’m trying to be patient.
Did you have all of your history before changing your name? Or did you change and then have your history migrated over somehow? I'm trying to be patient but also curious how this is going. I can find my old account but I can't login to it. I don't want to foul things up anymore than I potentially have at this point.

I did not have my history before I changed it. Not sure that had anything to do with it. I think all is slowly migrating over per Justin. I’ve had to change my password a couple of times but I now can log in via safari on phone and on my windows laptop.

I have tried to log back in with no luck. I just connected every email possible, and updated my username. It is showing in my profile and is now un-clickable, will it eventually switch to that over being anon?

So I was an HOB member and have logged in over on new site, but when I click on HOB posts, I get a popup screen trying to get me to register. Does that mean I’ll have to re-register and submit all my payment info again?

I got HOB access for two days before it expired. Not sure why I wouldn't have access through January, since that is what I paid for on the old site. Guess I'll just keep waiting and see if this corrects itself or what.

Gotta applaud this Terry dude and how he created the same product. 3 times and made hundreds of millions off it. Sucks for us users though.

Can we change the name of this forum to "Central Bank Forum @ Kroger Website"? It doesn't feel corporate enough.

I hadn't been here for 2 weeks due to vacation and work trips, and come back and have to change my password, redo my avatar, change my handle back and then of all things I see that Matt Freakin' Jones is now the "founder"? WTF happened?!?! I've walked into hell. Matt Jones was never the "founder" of Catspause or CatsIllustrated, but now he's given the title because his crap old forum run by sophomoric crap "writers" got bought by on3?

And of course now he's shoving 2000 ads a minute in our face. Hell, I'm in hell, and Matt Jones is the cause!

Why not use an ad-blocker? I haven't been getting ads for many years.

So what's the deal at this point with some people keeping their post count and some people not?

I don't mind being patient if that's something the management is working on and it will be fixed for everyone eventually. I've done a fair amount of programming and some web development too and I can well imagine what a thorny problem that may be all told.

OTOH if management has just washed their hands of that whole problem, that's much different story for me.

Maybe I'm being petty, sure. I guess post count is a petty thing. However, if it really didn't mean anything we just would have reset everybody to zero and we obviously didn't do that. So don't tell me it's all that petty a thing.

Anyone have any information on whether there is a plan to try and work this out for everyone eventually?

They're working on it, progress seems incremental, but it's happening. I don't know what is involved in something like this, maybe it's hard to do seamlessly; I truly don't know.

I heard from support yesterday, five days after filing a ticket. Nothing has changed yet but they responded. I noticed prior that this account was kind of associated with my old account.

Thanks bro, that’s really good to hear. I don’t mind being patient a long time as long as they really are working on it. Hope they get you sorted out soon!

OK. Made it here and have developed enough basic skills to participate.

Still can't figure out how to delete a thread which I started as a test. Let's have some breakfast and then try again.

Why not use an ad-blocker? I haven't been getting ads for many years.
Nope, doesn't work for On3 - I get the notification and can't continue. Unless you have a special ad blocker.

Firefox won't even let me get a login page - it's blank. Apparently it's seen by Firefox as some attempt to get my private info. I've even turned everything off and it still won't allow a full log in page. So I have to go to Chrome, and we all know what Google has done lately regarding ad blockers.

EDIT: I just tried something - in Chrome I restarted Ad Blocker Plus and it seems to work as long as I'm already signed in. So no ads (for now)!
