The User CP has been broken for weeks and I cannot get to my profile *at all*. I cannot use the back door method suggested by Pooka1 via Private Messaging because I turned that option off awhile ago - since I can't receive PMs this application won't let me send them either. Here's the message: "You have turned off private messages. You may not view or send private messages until you turn them on by editing your profile". Well, I was trying to turn the PM option back on, but now I am completely blocked out of User CP by all known methods since the edit profile feature does not work and I can't PM.
I waited quite a while to even address this problem because the error screen said the Technical Staff was notified. However, after at least four weeks and no resolution, I then e-mailed someone via a link on the error screen but have heard no response from that person in over two weeks now.
Linda or Joe what are your suggestions??? Do I need to re-register under a new name or will this problem be resolved?
All I want to do is update my User CP - someone throw me a bone here!
Thanks in advance...
Hello again,
Out of shear frustration of not being able to update my User CP, I decided to re-register under a new id (calif-native). This new account was activated and I was supplied a link to update the User CP info:
So for all of you who can't get to User CP via any methods, try this link and hopefully it will work for you (you will get an error when saving the changes but they *do* get saved). I was able to update my original id of ca-native to turn back on private messages.
If you want attention, email, etc., from Joe, I can state categorically that being involved in certain off-topic debates will get you that in near real time.
You might also receive scarcely sane PMs from the mother of certain posters so there's a trade-off there to consider.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions.
btw, I never did hear from Joe or Linda.
It's a shame it had to come to that. I would have thought one of our moderators would have found the time to assist with the problem by now -I mean it was first brought to their attention several weeks ago, right?
