Due to Proboards upgrade, some things on the boards have messed up, such as titles, groups, avatars, access to the boards etc.
1. Groups: I had to re-create them all to make them work propperly. The only big problem as far as I know is with the Ravenclaws, which can´t access to their account. This also have caused that all thread joined but a Ravenclaw is messed up too.
I am currently waiting for Proboards support. I will wait till sunday. If the problem is not fixed by that time, then I will erase all Ravenclaw members so they should have to register again.
2. Avatars: The avatar issue is usually caused by "spaces" in your avatars. For whatever reason, PBv4 dosen't seem to like the %20 so your pictures won't come up.
If you've got your pictures in a file (or album, for photobucket users), make sure there isn't any space. Normally it would work fine, but with v4, it dosen't.
Check and make sure your image doesn't have a "space" in it. If it does, eliminate it and the problem should be resolved.
3. Account activation: The user should recieve an e-mail with instructions on how to activate their account. You must use a valid, active e-mail to recieve this. If you are using AOL (which is not recommended), it may not come, and if it is, it may be in a spam folder. If you're using Hotmail or Yahoo, it may go direction to the spam folder. So, do not use AOL if you don´t want any problem.
On the other hand, when it ask you for your age, give your real age NOT your character´s age. Proboards erase any member account under 13 years old.
If there is any other issue, please let me know.
