New Website, Forums and Domain (update forum credentials)

[Red]

Hello dear players;

 

We are glad to announce that a new website, forums and a new domain has been implemented. As most of you already noticed the main website is completely redone and brand new. Meiji, Eaty (Walrosskastanie) and myself have been working recently on a new refreshing brand new PRO website which will hopefully give us more scalability and options. There will be more work on the website as the time goes.

 

- Forums are now using Xenforo engine. I managed to import most of the stuff from our old phpBB forum. You will need to update your avatars, fix some of your threads since bbcodes were not imported due to a different system being used by xenforo. The reason we moved to xenforo was simply that we felt that phpBB no longer serves our and your needs and shares same values. Both have good and bad sides, hopefully new forum engine will give you lots to choose from and make you enjoy more around here. The forums were down due to user permissions upgrades, groups, style and other things. Please note that we are now using 1 account 1 email system. I've managed to isolate user accounts who had more than 1 account on the same email address (in-game emails were not changed). The emails were assigned an incrementing prefix. Simply log in to the forums and change your "new" email address to something that is yours and you use. If you forgot your password and wish to recover it then please message a member of staff on discord to fetch you a new changed email address. They can either change existing email or give you the one with the prefix so you can "recreate the email" and eventually change it to something you like. Please note that no sensitive email info was handed over to someone who already does not have access to your registered email addresses. A list of accounts who had their email changed can be found by clicking HERE.

 

- We decided to change our primary domain to "pokemonrevolution.net" due to the opportunity we got and I believe it is more friendly and easier to type in, comparing it to the current one. Please note that all other domains that belong to us will be resolving to a new domain. The transition to a new domain should be smooth, swift and unnoticed for an end user.

 

We apologize for forum downtime but it needed to be done and there was no other way to do it. Enjoy the game.

 

Regards;

To explain more about forum emails and passwords:

 

1. Due to a domain change, you will be prompted to enter your account password if you had it remembered by your browser.

2. The passwords did not change. Only e-mail for some users did.

3. If your e-mail was changed then it was changed to a randomly attached prefix for your registered e-mail. (old: example@myemail[DOT]pro, new: 123example@myemail[DOT]pro)

4. You can change the e-mail once you log in to the forum. Log in with the same password and account name you used on old forums.

5. If you are unable to access forums using your account that worked before then simply reach out members of staff on discord and ask them to give you the new email. Once a new email has been given you simply re-create said email and reset your password. You can change your e-mail afterwards to an actual one.

There are a number of users who are confused with this. Basically what happened is that our old forums were able to have more accounts on a single mail and registration itself allowed more accounts per email. Now, since we changed those to only one I had to generate the prefixes for some user emails for forums.

 

Example; If you had two accounts for the same mail ([email protected]) then one account mail was assigned a random prefix and it became for example [email protected].

 

How to go around this and restore access to your old account and change the email to something you have access to?

 

1. Log in with the password that you used before (you will be prompted to enter username and pass because we changed domain if you had it saved) and change your email in user panel.

-OR-

2. Reach out the member of staff on discord or message them here to give you a new assigned email. Once they give you random email, you can simply re-create it, assuming it won't be taken. A proof of you being account owner might be required, such as you knowing original mail which they can check does it match with that one in the game.

-OR-

3. Request a member of staff to change your email based on your in-game one. They are able to check the same.
