Hi there!

I'm posting this message on behalf of my friend Cilvyn. They say that, after not being on the site for a significant amount of time (six months or more) they've returned, and are unable to post or send PMs. Has some kind of lock been applied to their account?

Thanks.

Cilvyn.

Your friend's main problem may be a critical existence failure: searching for "Cilvyn" returns no matches and there are no users between "Cilonrs" and "Cimaron". Are you sure you spelt the name right?

It's spelled right, the account (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/member.php?31618) does exist, but apparently is in some non-normal state.

You'll probably need Rawhide to help sort this out.

She needs to confirm her email address. I'm guessing that at some point she changed her email address, and hasn't confirmed the request. She can request a new confirmation email be sent from here (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/register.php?do=requestemail).

Thank you!

Silly how such a small thing looked like such a big issue.

Thank you swordfish for making this post and thank you everyone for taking the time to answer and help!
