SamDrew Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Hello all! I've got a bit of an odd request. I'm not sure if any of you are familiar with Mocpages.com or not: it's a free, online community where builders can post their mocs to share with other fans and enthusiasts, get comments/criticisms, participate in competitions, etc. I've been checking the site every so often for several years now and always enjoyed the creativity and handiwork of the builders, but never made an account myself. Recently, an opportunity for a sale (BST is my home forum, I'll freely admit) with a Mocpages member has come to my attention, but I have no way of communicating with them except through the Mocpages site. With perfectly inconvenient timing, the site's servers have been on the fritz for the last month or so, leaving me unable to create a new account and thus without a way to contact this member. I was wondering if by chance any of you has an old Mocpages account they don't use any more (or do, if they're comfortable with that), and if perhaps they'd be willing to lend me the login and password so I can get in touch with this particular member. Unless otherwise instructed by them, I would not make any alterations to the username, password, or email of the account, and would "return" it to them as soon as the deal was complete. I'd just really hate to miss this good opportunity, as an avid buyer/seller of bonkles, and so am perhaps really reaching here but thought it was worth a shot! If you have an account on Mocpages (making a new one won't work, a friend has already given that a shot) that you'd be willing to let me use for a wee bit, shoot me a PM or comment below. Thanks for reading! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xboxtravis Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I think with some work you can get an account. I use MOCpages, and I know that the servers come down a lot (server repairs, crashes, fixess, ect); but they have enough reliability you should be able to get an account if you try enough. 1 Quote All aboard the hype train!

SamDrew Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 Thanks for the pointers! I've tried with two different email addresses and done the "forgot my password" reset several times, the problem is that the confirmation emails never come through and so I can't use the login. So it's something to do with their email system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamDrew Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 Numerous times yeah. I'm fairly certain they're just not sending them. Some forum threads on the site were saying the same thing, that emails of all sorts from Mocpages weren't going through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamDrew Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 Anybody have any other ideas/suggestions? I would really appreciate any help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ta-metru_defender Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Heads up: Don't double post; it's frowned upon. Something else you can try doing is creating a disposable email address to see if it'll send to that.

SamDrew Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 Thanks for the pointer! I'll be mindful of that. Tried using a burner address, same thing, but good idea though! Fortunately I did manage to find someone to contact the site member, so it's all good! Just waiting to hear back now. Also, I'm totally digging the Switchfoot lyrics in your signature! By far my favorite band of all time!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
