Account Reinstatement cwardell

[cwardell]

I think my account has been closed because I have not been active (lack of time).

How can I apply for reinstatement?

Thanks.

Best wishes,

Charles Wardell

Please visit http://www.dmoz.org/docs/en/reinstate.html to request reinstatement. Any problems, seek help in this thread

[cwardell]

I followed your advice but have not had a reply yet. Please advise.

I can find no reinstatement request for the editor with name cwardell,

not an open one and not a recently processed one

when did you make the request

and did you get a positive response

 

reinstatements are processed by volunteer editors just like anything in DMOZ, so they might take some time although we try to process them as quick as possible

[cwardell]

I must have made the request (using the above link) on February 2nd or 3rd.

I got no response at all; neither positive nor negative.

It's not urgent. I'm happy to wait as long as the request is in the system.

Should I wait ... or should I just try again?

[pvgool]

there is no reinstatement request for editor cwardell in our system

you will have to make a new one and this time be sure to check the screens while you make it that no error is encountered

[cwardell]

I now get: Request not submitted, because

User does not exist, or username/password is incorrect.

 

My username was definitely: cwardell

I used the last PW that was valid.

 

When I try to reset PW I get "An email has been sent to your mailbox. Please check your email."

However, no message arrives. I have checked spam too.

Both addresses: <removed for your privacy> are still valid.

 

What do I do now?

I've sent you a feedback using the dmoz messaging system so we can ascertain if the mails being sent are arriving somewhere or being eaten...

[cwardell]

Hi elper,

Yes ... the test mail "ODP Editor Feedback-Test Mail" arrived.

Thanks,

C.

we are investigating a possible bug in the request password reset form

please be patient

[pvgool]

problem solved (as far as we know)

please request for new password - email should be received within a few seconds (minutes at the most)

and then for reinstatement

[cwardell]

Thanks ... have just tried again and got "An email has been sent to your mailbox. Please check your email." .... but still no email message. Will try again later,

[pvgool]

when i tried it for myself I received the email within seconds

your email is the one you mentioned before on aon

[cwardell]

Yes .. correct. That's the one.

I got the test message [from elper] [to cwardell] just fine ...

[cwardell]

Found the new pw email in spam. Sorry ...

[cwardell]

I used the same email address and the newly assigned pw and I still get:

 

Request not submitted, because

User does not exist, or username/password is incorrect.

[cwardell]

I have now repeated the whole process once again and finally got the message:

 

Reinstate Application Received

 

You will receive an email notification once your request has been reviewed and processed by a meta editor.

[Elper]

Confirming that that is indeed the case.

[cwardell]

Good to be back.

Thanks.
