When you've completed your introductory post, then click "Preview", below the text field ,and see what it looks like.

Immediately above the text field, the output from your intro post should appear.

I've noticed that, at least since I was invited to join this group, the search function doesn't work at all. I don't have this problem with any other Yahoo group. Admins please take note.

Hey, I am not getting forum updates. How does one retrieve them to read?

Jacqueline Mathers 496G

Hello. Just as a heads up, a few times now when I go to post a reply I get a page that says "No post mode specified" I can hit the back button and hit the submit button again and it works, but it is a bit annoying so I thought I'd put it out there in case forum support wants to take a look at it.

I am occasionally having that issue as well -- frustrating!

Me three!

Hi Cat,

I tried to post to the HRCC Yahoo Group, as I am a student (#1504), but my letter won't post.

All e-mails I try to send via the L.M. website or the HRCC group website get bounced back.

So, I am trying here as a last resort. I also tried to see you at the shop, but you were not there on Friday....and then it was the new year's holiday.

As a student, I am listed as inactive. I thought that the listing wasn't to be made as "inactive status" until after Jan. 1, 2011, but it showed that way in December. So I am trying to fix that.

The HRCC group list does show me as a member, and has my current e-mail address.

The student listing by # does not have my current e-mail or address or city/zip code.

I turned in homework on Friday, Dec. 31 -- #'s 1, 2, and 3, when I visited the shop.

Also a letter and a gift.

Just wanted to make sure you got them.

I also left my new address and phone # with the shop.

Please let me know if you need anything else from me.

I'd like to be on active status again.

Thank you and sorry for a posting this in this forum.

Best wishes to you in the new year, as well as nagasiva and sophie.

I tried to post to the HRCC Yahoo Group, as I am a student (#1504), but my letter won't post.

That's because you are listed as an inactive student.

All e-mails I try to send via the L.M. website or the HRCC group website get bounced back. So, I am trying here as a last resort.

The best way to reach the shop is at the regular ordering email (order@luckymojo.com) and if you have questions about your homework status, just email nagasiva (homework@luckymojo.com) -- neither of those will bounce. But ... anyway, you got me here!

I also tried to see you at the shop, but you were not there on Friday....and then it was the new year's holiday.

Nagasiva and i were out of town for our wedding anniversary. I'm sorry we missed you.

As a student, I am listed as inactive. I thought that the listing wasn't to be made as "inactive status" until after Jan. 1, 2011, but it showed that way in December. So I am trying to fix that.

Nagasiva made the change a bit early this year, as we were going to be out of town on January 1st. You got caught right in the midst of that, it seems.

The HRCC group list does show me as a member, and has my current e-mail address, but the student listing by # does not have my current e-mail or address or city/zip code.

It looks to me like it does -- at least, it is the same as the one in our database.

I turned in homework on Friday, Dec. 31 -- #'s 1, 2, and 3, when I visited the shop. Also a letter and a gift. Just wanted to make sure you got them.

I got the gift -- it is absolutely delightful. Thank you so much! You know my taste well!

I presume that the homework is in nagasiva's pile and i will keep an eye out for it on Friday, January 7th, when we have our next homework party.

I also left my new address and phone # with the shop.

As i noted above, i see no change in the database indicating a new address was recently changed (the database keeps a record of all changes).

Please let me know if you need anything else from me. I'd like to be on active status again.

I am sure you will be listed as Active when your homework is graded this Friday.

Thank you and sorry for a posting this in this forum.

No problem! Thank you for staying in touch -- and thanks again for the wonderful Holiday gift.

Best wishes to you in the new year, as well as nagasiva and sophie.
Laura Leih ~ S#1504

And the same to you and to yours in return.

Thanks Cat! Glad you got it.
Happy anniversary to you both too.
Just in case....my homework was in a red folder.
I am sure it'll be fine.
Thank you again for your reply.
~ Laura

Yes, i just banned everyone from the forum, including myself -- and then i couldn't get back in to unban myself. nagasiva was the only person left unbanned, because he has founders' privileges, and founders cannot be banned. So he unbanned me, and then i unbanned everyone else.

How did i do this?

Well, i was trying to ban an Asian porn site spammer and clicked the wrong dealie-bobbber.

Sorry for the inconvenience. It was a bit scary there for a moment, but all is back to normal, i hope. (Fingers crossed)

Its a good thing Nagasiva could save the day!

Ah now it makes sense to me.. I was wondering what terrible thing I had done to be permanently banned from this site

Congratulations on sorting things out, it must have been frustrating not being able to go online yourself either...

Laugh at the little bumps! Breathe a good strong sigh of relief!

(I realize I can only say this because I did not notice the ban myself...I'm sure I would have been a little shaken!)

Yays for Nagasiva...great to see everything righted again!

-Joseph M.

Yes I was also wondering what horrible deed I did, but decided to go check out the Lucky Mojo Facebook page, where my fears were eventually put to rest. Felt like I had lost a wonderful place in my life for a good while there. Very good that you both have founder status!

svarthyndan -- well, i have Founder status NOW -- but it turns out i didn't THEN, which is why i could ban my own self. Now i can't.

LOL!

And thanks again to nagasiva.

Good thing I checked the FB page only today,cause I usually open the forum page first. The whole situation of you banning yourself from your own forum gave me a good laugh Ms Cat,but I wouldn't find it that funny if I'd checked the forum page too and found myself banned! Good thing you have Founder status now and congrats to Nagasiva for saving the day

thats good you saved the day ....catherineyronwode can u pls in box me i need to ask you a few question pls thanks

heehee

Glad to enjoy the un-bannedness! thanks to you both!

Phew!! I was really freaking out about this last night...trying to figure out what on earth I could have done to get banned for life!

Thanks for fixing this, Nagasiva and Cat...and go ahead and disregard my emails!

"Thanks for fixing this, Nagasiva and Cat...and go ahead and disregard my emails! "
and mine. Sorry for the hysteria...

Actually, i find the hysteria rather touching. I didn't know so many people cared!

For the future, just follow the Lucky Mojo shop on Facebook and/or Twitter and you will get immediate updates if i do something this foolish again.

Agreed, agreed, agreed...take pride in understanding the panic of people who truly depend on this sight and forum...
Hooray we're all back!

-Joseph

lol I am banned again, but this time I can still read the forum, just not login.....

I like this kind of banning a lot better :)

im new here and cant figure out how to post a new question..

You just did! LOL

Just find the correct thread group for the subject of your question and ask away!!!
Good luck to you!

Hi 4 Love Welcome to The Forum! Find the list on the main page, like "asking for help in your situation" (example) then post a new topic in the upper left hand corner.
Good luck and welcome to The Forum!

Hi everyone, please help me. i signed u weeks ago but i have forgotten my user-name and password please how do i rectify this because i cant signed up again as my email is already registered. please any help will be appreciated.

You are posting now, so obviously you acquired a new name and password or recalled your old one.

Hi, since around 2-3 days ago, I cannot post in certain topics? I can post in some, and I went into the Books, Pamplets & Tarot Card index and cannot post. In fact, it says New topic,and when I sign it, it actually disappears. So, I signed out and then went to New Topic, and then, it asked me of course to sign in. Then after I did it said "you cannot post in the forum". I don't know what other ones, either, I believe the newer ones, also it won't let me, the ones about the Hoodoo Radio show. I know Nagasiva was working on updating the forum, so maybe that is it?

Thanks A lot
Tara

Sorry for the problem. Nagasiva was working on this tonight. Are you able to post now?

Hi Cat, not yet Still waiting. I'm sure it will work soon....

Nagasiva said he thought he had fixed the problem in a few other places. He says he was not aware that there was the same problem in the Books section. He is fixing it now.

Anyone else having these problems -- PLEASE POST with details.

Fixed! Try posting there and report back please!

Yaay! Nagasiva it's fixed. Thank you , thank you.

Hi, I was about to report a copyright violation when I noticed that I'm actually unable to post in that forum. Since it is an issue of board settings, I decided to place this here- is that forum no longer intended for reports?

Site in question: http://www.mysticalwonders.org/group/ab ... asc-0.html

possible-copyright-theft-t10594.html
Here is the link I need to merge, but I went to this site. Could you please post specifics for Miss Cat in the thread above.
Anyone can access the above thread.
Thank you!

Hum, it's not giving me the option to post in that thread either. In the thread I linked to in the first post: I'm not sure if there's any violation from page 1, however I know for sure that there's information directly copy and pasted from both the informative pages, and some even directly from the shop pages (on one such occasion the person forgot to delete a price tag and SKU).

I would like to make a report in that forum, but I don't seem to have a "new topic" button to start a thread. I found a site with at least 3 exact copies of spells and they all seem to have been plagiarized by the same person. http://www.spells4free.com/myarticles/I ... rticles/56

Hi,

I too have tried to contact the Board Administrator regarding problems with changing my email address. I keep getting my email coming back to me saying unable to send.

When I try and change my email address it say the address is already in use and keeps retaining my former email address. If someone could advise or help me out with this matter as am a little of a techno phobe.

Many thanks

love conquers all posted in the honey jar thread, but sent me a PM saying her ISP is blocked. The ISP is 109.99.200.223 and is in Romania.

Priestess Divine,

Thanks for pointing this out. The admin contact email addrss changed and we forgot to update the message-link. The current Board Administrator email contact is

Why are my responses not readable? I asked for help on the forum on honey jar forum and my long post isn't even there for others to respond?! I'm getting frustrated with site quickly

Hi Tessa42,

Your posts are there, they have not disappeared, they just need to go through moderation prior to being released on the forum since you are new and thus are not released immediately for public view. Please be patient, we are a limited number of moderators to read a very vast number of posts for approval. Both your initial post and response to Miss Aida have been approved and are in the thread on honey jars.

If you can't find where your posts are on the forum, since sometimes we merge them with existing threads where applicable, go to your profile by clicking on your name and "search recent posts" -- you will find it.

Hi everyone,

I posted a reply in a forum earlier today and I am waiting for it to be approved. I understand the moderators are limited but roughly how long does it take for a post to appear ? I done it about 5 hours ago now.

Thank you all in advance.
Sarah

The approval process depends on how many moderators are on-line and how many posts are in the queue. The time it takes to approve can be minutes or days - there is no specific time-limit.

Thank you for your patience.

Hello
I've been trying to post & PM to certain people for 2 days but it won't let me. Could you please tell me what to do?
Thank you

Lovemagic,

New members are on moderation for the first few posts. This is how we keep out spammers, by inspecting EVERYBODY'S initial posts. That means there's a delay until your first few posts are approved.

And the PM system is a little weird; messages are still labeled as being in your Outbox until the recipient has seen them, so it looks like they haven't gone anywhere even though they're "out there."

Hope this helps,

Miss Michaele

Hello. I did everything that nagasiva suggested in the basic instructions on this thread and i still can not post anything on the forums. I keep getting an error and for some reason i keep getting logged off. I just reregistered with the same email address i used years ago, yesterday. I posted an introductory greeting, but i can't post on the forums and i really needed advice.

Thanks

Hello, FB30,
I am not seeing a problem.
I just answered a different post from you so, it looks like you're good to go!!

Thank you Miss Aida. I will try to post my topic again. Hopefully it works

So i was finally able to post on the ammonia jar thread, but i still can not post on the honey jar thread. I keep getting that same error and i'm really getting upset and discouraged. I've been trying to post for 3 days
I really need advice on my situation.
Is anyone else having this problem or just me?
