Forum issues

[fidd]

I have, I believe, a paid for $12.99 per month account, but find myself unable to start a topic in any forum except this one and the billing-forum, although I'm sometimes - but not always - able to reply to a post started by another.

Help!

[godart32]

Same, can't post nowhere. I hope its an oversight.

[B2K]

I've just recently setup the branch subscription permissions, they may not yet be synching with the billing server - y'all should be good now.

I'm not sayin it... but yes.  Though for the near term the permissions update will be manually done, so may lag a bit.  All the career subs will have access to general from then:  infantry - barracks ; all army - barracks and motorpool; air force - hangar

yay it's fixed, thanks

Could you give me manual access to zee Hangar please. Just got past my re-subbing hiccups and I should have the air sub, but no Hangar access. Also, the new forum feature which states that people can change their default profile pictures by clicking on the icon in under the Profile page, it isn't working for me either.

done

Thenks a million! 

A much better man than I am <3

I too would like to have access to the Hangar. off to see if b2k's restored access for me... thanks it now works!

I do think it's a retrograde step to limit players to forums specific to their account types. Comment on the game or events is a much richer experience for being able to discuss issues that affect both brown-job, squids and the glamour-boys...

A gentle reminder this still isn't resolved. It's incredibly frustrating not to be able to initiate posts.  I had posted a thread on the UC here, asking a mod to move it to the games ideas forum, but that seems to have evaporated instead. Ho hum.

[fidd]

Thanks, that seems to have solved it again.

Cheers,

These permissions appear to have "stuck" this time. I'd be deeply obliged if I could have access to the Hangar as well, though the opportunity presents.

'all ground' get barracks and motor pool

'air' get hangar

'infantry' gets the barracks

(all of the above get general)

premium gets everything outside of the builder forum.

Smart.

People will sub for their interest group plus spawn stuff.

I understand that. I had hoped to post in the Hangar concerning the large RC Vickers Wellington I'm building, which I thought might be of interest in there. Personally I can't see the sense in these divided-access forums. The only reason I've not got an air account just now, and am limited to playing infantry is that I have no functioning stick/throttle etc.

It doesn't mean I'm not interested in reading the air forum.

So, I might be wrong, but it appears that when the sub on the account renews, the permissions go back to default too. For example, I resubbed on June 17th last month and once B2K gave me access I had no problem viewing the Hangar and posting there. However, when my sub just re-upped today, I have lost Hangar access subsequently even though I still have the same sub. Hopefully this can be automated and fixed to save B2K all the time and effort.

Hangar access would be nice.

 

 

[zippy]

@B2K if it is right-click and grant access stuff can you also re-do it for me as well when you do krum's.

Must be something because we show up as "Free-play" accounts, instead of some form of paid account.

Does that mean we will or will not get access?

 

I'm still showing up as free play instead of career air or whatever it's called

[fidd]

Hi B2k,

My account renewal payment went through today and I notice all the previosuly correct forum permissions has fallen-over again. If you could remedy that again, I'd be grateful.

Cheers,
