3 20 EST --

Reejr
Rondo
ShadowLord and perhaps others have the following problem..

While trying to log onto SGC6..

The message comes at the login screen and says - unable to find specified account -

I have tried to log on with each of the various races that I have accounts for and it wont let me on.
Same problem for Reejr and Rondo - We tried reboots and tried to create new accounts.

Perhaps some problem not related to the game itself..

Your login email address is case sensitive. For example, if your login email name is duck@yahoo.com for your server character and you spell it with a capital Duck@yahoo.com at the login screen, it will not find your server account at the campaign selector when joining a server. The server will ask you to make another character account.

Otherwise... it's a chat channel problem or the Coalition spies are finally getting their paychecks...

Well aware of that diz -- as I mentioned it hit the 3 of us at the same time -- very odd for 3 systems to create Login issues at the same time isn't it?
And as mentioned it -- wont let us created a new account..the only change I make for email addy is to add a 1 to each account

Dude, we don't use keypad to login to the same account you got booted from if per chance you drop. The system remembers your last login. Everything is right there as you should well know.

Maybe tommorrow it will go away...or perhaps...Coalition hack!!!!

Honestly I dont know. Sandtrouts account and bearslayer? accounts went missing too, although bears came back? Now how weird is that. This warrants an investigation. I hereby appoint you special investigator of the missing accounts. Feel free to take whatever action necessary to find these accounts. They must be somewhere... Since I really dont know much more other than to contact Bonk and see what he knows, G/L!

Oh, and it's happened to me on another server once... Although it was probably me forgetting my case sensitivity... and I couldnt field a DN anymore. Quite frustrating. I can sympathize.

_Rondo_GE The OutLaw · « **Reply #5 on:** August 22, 2006, 02:42:41 am »

And yes I had the same problem.

ShadowLord · « **Reply #6 on:** August 22, 2006, 02:42:45 am »

I know how to get this problem fixed --

Diz did you know Chuut and Deadman are still online?

Snickers -- wonder if Reejr went off to service the wife while his account is down

Not listening I see. Still think its a keypunch error?

Ok so there is a problem where do we go from here?

Thanks for your sympathy.

I dont know you dont switch accounts and case sensitivity. I'm am TRYING to help here... Just because I helped create this server monster doesnt mean it listens to me when I ask it a question. If you really must know, it's quite a tempermental thing. It may bite for all we know...

Duck, I'll login on all 8 of my accounts if I can remember them, I have one for each race, and see if it still remembers me. DO NOT talk bad about this server... it's listening... it always... listens... ssssshhhhhhh!

KAT Chuut-Ritt · « **Reply #11 on:** August 22, 2006, 02:57:58 am »

Apparently its working now

Dizzy · « **Reply #12 on:** August 22, 2006, 03:00:03 am »

Ok, I just tried 2 accounts of mine and it said at the loging screen unable to find specified account or something to that effect. Over and over. I closed down OP and logged on to see if could create a new account, but ended up trying another time which it worked and got me to the campaign selector. And Rondo says he is on the server.

At the login screen, our accounts are processed thru the gsa servers. The server, the directory servers, the DB nor I have anything to do with this part of the game. Looks like it cleared up.

Capt Jeff · « **Reply #13 on:** August 22, 2006, 05:42:55 am »

Are you talking logging into the server list or actually logging into the Slave Girls server itself?

I had a problem the other day getting past the Gamespy login to the server list the other day. I waited a few minutes and tried again, and it worked.

We are at Gamespy's mercy when it comes to being able to log on the D2. If they ever dropped the SFC login, we would be screwed......

Dizzy · « **Reply #14 on:** August 22, 2006, 05:46:22 am »

SSSSHHHHH! Dont let them hear that! They are listening... always listening...

Often i've thought about this.... it scares the hell out of me.... would love to know how it's "tied" in, especially since we (dynaverse.net) controls the directory servers. Would be HUGE to get around this dependency though I've no idea (source code issues?)

Dork errrr Dizzy what and when did I say that was bad about this server? I have nothing but apprecation for the time and effort admins and techies put into making this game functional and fun for all... however I do wish you could answer my question.. What and when did I say that was bad mouthing this sever???

You will also note that in my original post I even mentioned that it may not be a problem with the game/sever but another possible problem

Jeeze

Dizzy · « **Reply #18 on:** August 22, 2006, 05:36:50 pm »

You took it wrong, dork, er duck. The server listens to all. It can hear whispers in the dark... Secrets long lost, all are revealed. It hears PM's too... so be careful what you send... I sense problems ahead...

Has nothing do to if you bad mouth the server like saying it sucks. I think it suck the map is so big and the OCI is broken or the fact there are still useless commando ships less than .67 move cost in the list. But that's not talking bad about the server, thats talking bad about the admin's design. Dont talk bad about the server, it listens.

I hope you get me. I dont care if peeps talk bad about my design or the things I did or didnt do, I made some mistakes and made some unpopular choices and have been criticised for them... but the server... its... alive... and listening... always listening...

Evil Kraven · « **Reply #19 on:** August 23, 2006, 08:07:11 am »

ROFL! dizz man ur a freakin riot dude! hey, I like the design personally. with th OCI the map was fine. hey you guys found some problems with the SQL (what ever it is...I'm clueless) and its a good thing cause in the future those issues will have been fixed right? (hopefully). so you guys are like part of the pioneers who help make this game even be even more fun!

and the server? its been OUTSTANDING!!! for this player. I could never do 2v2's of 3v2's before. I'm on 56k cause there is no DSL/Cable available ( you know back here in "gods country") .I always dropped. this is the first server I've been able to hang in them!!!!!! sometimes I have to draft, sometimes not. so for me I LOVE THIS FREAKEN SERVER!!!!! (hope its listening...always listening...thinking...problem solving...)

Dizzy · « **Reply #20 on:** August 23, 2006, 10:31:55 am »

Thank u kraven.

And I take it there have been no login issues since? Well thats good.

I'm going to start a mission feedback thread soon. We pulled a lot of missions this server that wernt thouroughly test5ed... Some were supposed to be 3v3 but were 2v2, some had minor issues and some fleet actions show too often. All will be fixed... but will be good to get feedback from u. Till then, if there are more login issues, let me know, but I think it was a gsa problem thats out of our hands.

LOL... my problem was a case sensitivity problem also....

Forgot to make my usual postit note listing what addresses were for which accounts....

If you are talking about the server set up... I was still trying to use my GSA account... then couldn't remember my d.net password....

You know we have all entered GEEK HEAVEN when there is such a thing as "insulting a server". Now insulting an admin is another matter, but until human females start actually giving birth to servers the whole "insulting a server" etiquette is beyond my present human capabilities to comprehend. sh*t happens.

Anyway the problem went away. I'm not really sure what caused it. And obviously neither does anyone else. Probably GSPY. Not sure why we have to go through GSPY to get to the server but its probably some kind of HUB that manages the traffic...errr...whatever. It was kinda freaky. It hasn't come back for me thats for sure.

So thanky Dizzy for your prompt attention on the matter. You guys do a great job dealing with whatever it is you have to deal with. I'm sure you will agree that NOTHING is more bonding and remarkably rare than 3 SFC players hallucinating simultaneously from three remote places all over the country while drinking and smoking completely different ingredients. Your presence during these dubious moments was greatly appreciated.

Whats more...it gave me a great excuse to go to bed.
