Title: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: yksehtniycul on September 03, 2008, 10:42:33 PM Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS?
I've not received mine yet, and I'm not positive they all got out (my address was last on the list) Please let me know, if and when you receive yours. PS: My power is out... hurricane weather :ninja: ooo(wonder how long these batteries will last???) Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: Emilio Morales on September 03, 2008, 11:44:05 PM mmm, I haven't received anything yet, guess I'll have to wait :geno:
Well, let see where does D3 goes this time, let's hope for the best :biggrin: Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: yksehtniycul on September 03, 2008, 11:53:06 PM I guess I'll resend. I just wish I could remember what I'd written :tongue:
I was using a new browser (Google Chrome (http://www.google.com/chrome/index.html)) though I hadn't realized it at the time. It caused some odd behavior, though I couldn't imagine the messages being effected. It looks like Jose has deleted the old bbs. If not Jose the vBulletin people might've demanded the ISP delete it. At any rate it's gone now (I have a backup) Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: yksehtniycul on September 04, 2008, 12:33:21 AM I'm afraid the newsletter might not be working this time.
What was the sending address of the letter I sent out for the beta invitation btw? If it isn't an @digitaldevildb.com address, please PM the answer to me. I'll try shortening the recipient list to see if something goes thru... Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: yksehtniycul on September 04, 2008, 04:03:17 AM OK,
I think all the invitations are out. I had to break the members list up into several bitesize chunks. My chunk made it to my address at least. I also noticed my personal email is being used for the sender address :sick: I gotta fix that in case people start emailing me, or even break that account :geno: Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: Emilio Morales on September 04, 2008, 09:18:24 AM I haven't received the e-mail :confused: I also check on the Junk folder, but is not in there :eek: Well I guess is not of a problem for me, since I already know what's happening to the site, but I wonder if those who haven't noticed about the resurrection of the site, have the e-mail. :sweatdrop:
Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: Enid on September 04, 2008, 11:32:24 AM I have...and I got it twice.
Yesterday,and again today. Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: KaitoYamada on September 04, 2008, 03:03:48 PM I got one today. :biggrin:
Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: yksehtniycul on September 04, 2008, 04:34:14 PM This is helpful information. Please post if you received or did not receive an invite, and how many, no matter how many have posted before you.
Please don't post about the earlier beta invite of course :wink: Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: QBasic on September 04, 2008, 07:40:29 PM Nope.
Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: yksehtniycul on September 04, 2008, 08:12:48 PM Maybe we won't be able to rely upon this forums newsletter facilities :sweatdrop:
Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: QBasic on September 05, 2008, 09:36:04 PM Maybe we won't be able to rely upon this forums newsletter facilities :sweatdrop: Yeah...but, I mean, look at it. It worked the first time, right?Don't rely on it...but, don't give up on it either. Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: yksehtniycul on September 12, 2008, 07:51:29 PM I sent out a bulk mail thru gmail. At least 106 addresses bounced back. The others likely failed silently or were filtered into spam :rainbow:
The ones bouncing back are largely gmail, yahoo, hotmail, all the major webmail providers. Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: Emilio Morales on September 12, 2008, 08:00:16 PM I didn't receive the e-mail, again :sick:
Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: yksehtniycul on September 12, 2008, 08:21:19 PM Yeah, I just don't know of any definite way to get out a mass email. The web is so spam paranoid after-all.
Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS? Post by: bajan13k on September 24, 2008, 10:09:40 PM I sorta found this by accident from a post on one of the LJ megaten groups.
I was on Megaten Haven (different handle though), but that suddenly went down a while back... and last time I checked, this forum was down too, so I was plesantly surprised to see it back up. Hope it stays available. Title: Re: Did everyone receive an invitation to the new BBS?
