Are There Any Site Registration Or Contact Issues? -- myArmoury.com

Glen A Cleeton

I know Nathan has posted most recently and hope all is well. A couple of folks indicate trouble in trying to register and or contact.

In one case concerned he can't register as to respond to the classifieds and in the other instance having tried three times and gave up. I could only suggest the usual, working email and real name stuff.

Cheers

Some folks have crap email servers that mark emails as junk. They need to learn to work with their email providers or use a better service like gmail. Notoriously bad is hotmail.com as they mark everything as spam.

Additionally, we use a spam service to weed out spammers based on IP address and/or email address. IPs and emails that have been submitted by site owners as spammers are not allowed to be registered here.

The bottom line? Use something like gmail as your mail provider. There's a million reasons why to do this. Also, don't be a spammer than gets your IP address submitted to services. haha...

Have heard several times now in FB groups that the site hasn't accepted new registrations for about six months. Is the issue still the one noted above: not a myArmoury issue per se, but a an issue with the email submitted? Or, has registration been turned off for some reason?

I've seen very similar things on my own end that basically make using the website impossible. Despite having no problems before, about a year ago, the loading times started becoming incredibly slow, and any attempt to connect to the website caused it to completely crash, while every other website seemed to be working perfectly.
I've tried getting back on the website recently, but the loading times are sitll comically slow. Trying to log in often caused crashes, and the "stay logged in" feature is basically unusable since attempting to load any page afterwards will just show back a blank page.

I've heard this could be becaused one's email is being registered as "spam", but my email is a @gmail one, and even with different IPs or devices the problems are the same.
I do remember having similar issues on a forum, but that was back when it was being DDOSed, and i doubt myArmoury is in a similar situation.

Elio,
As you mentioned, there are forum stability issues and issues with staying logged in. If you delete cookies and/or change browsers and don't check the "stay logged in" box, things might improve. For me, as long as I use Chrome and don't try to stay logged in, I can usually get in pretty consistently.
