There is a forum 'FAQ' (Frequently Asked Questions) page in the 'Welcome to the Community' forum covering various registration / user issues. It's here:
If you have any further problems which you need to contact us about, but can't log in to post in here (we've had to turn off anonymous...
I know yesterday (13th March) was the first time a new PSB track had been played in ages, but (as per the long standing forum rules) in future all public requests for copies of any new track, PSB or otherwise, will be deleted and/or threads containing requests closed. We will officially...
Hi, I'm using gmail, and for some reason I can't seem to get any emails from this forum.
That means I didn't get an email when my account got approved, I didn't get any answer when I tried to use email forms from the forum contacts (I tried to ask for help twice and didn't get an answer, I assume...

finally found the error and it should be fixed now!
Hi, Sorry all about my double posting lately. Please could you delete any future doubles for me? When I post a reply, when it submits it everything all goes dead and I have to refresh - then it double posts. Does anyone know what is going wrong please?
Last post
does it still happen??? From what I know, it should be gone now!
Yesterday it started to behave. :clap: :clap: (Firefox wanted to do an update before I logged on here). Brilliant! Thank you for your help. :D
Hi guys, I was wondering when do you normally change the banner? It's been the same for over a year now.
Is it only with new album releases/eras that it changes?
I use Safari on my Mac and don't use Flash. I have Chrome installed so on the few occasions when I do need to view Flash content, I just use Chrome.
It's not a big issue, but I've just noticed if I open the forum using Safari on my iOS devices, I see YouTube embeds ok, but when using Safari on OSX...

can you now check, if it's now different (better) now?
Updated my contract today and moved the PSB forums to a new server/webspace.
After the forums are online (after a short downtime) now, the move seems to be done and the forums should be accessible and working again.
As you'll no doubt be aware by now, the board is suffering from a bit of a meltdown at the moment. Apparently, it couldn't handle a 36-letter word that I incorporated into the 91st paragraph of a short treatise on minimalism in pop. Apologies for the inconvenience. We are trying to solve this and...

Hmm, if I had noticed these problems earlier, I probably could fixed it all much quicker! But okay - nevermind, all seems fine now!

Okay thanks! Please let me know, if you'll receive another of that eMails... Really curious, if that'll happen again!
Can anybody create subforums for albums, compilations and singles?
Last post
Don't understand, why we should have such subs?! Can you explain, what we can discuss there?? The forum crowd isn't large enough to have major traffic in these sub forums! Guess such things are needed in a Depeche Mode forum, where the crowd is x10.
I've seen a few other forums with the feature, sometimes called thank yous, it makes a little button next to every post so people can click it to show their appreciation and others can see what posts are well regarded while they're scanning through threads.
I've just got a new phone and have been adding all my favourite websites to the browser.
I searched for this forum via google and Bing but the only results I get is a link to the site saying banned by ip and I can't log in. I also get the same result if I manually type the address in. I'm guessing...

strange, the German results seem to work fine!
Can't do anything to fix that! If the Google.UK (.COM) robot is banned, it should be a temporary ban and we have to see, what happens after the next check (in a few weeks).
I'm at work but because of the nature I'm allowed to browse the internet when things get quiet, however I try not to go to parts that are NSFW (not safe for work), so to wander into the What is your top 5 prized PSB posessions? topic and come across images of men's dicks, I don't particularly...

I think maybe the OP changed it back. Hopefully sorted again.
I have posted this on one of the threads, but I'll post here too. Since yesterday Ziggy's signature attachments have stretched, so much that the page can't be viewed in one go.
I know it's not this computer, as other than the pages Ziggy's posted on, the rest is...
I looked at the FAQ and didn't see an answer to this, unless I missed it...my apologies.
I received an email from another member on this forum through the admin email, but I cannot replay back to her, as I don't see her email address or her usernames in the email sent to me. Is this a feature that...
Last post
Looks like she send you the message during she wasn't logged in, so the system couldn't figure out, which is the sender email. So if there wasn't an username in that mail, you can't track the sender. But if you have the username, I'm sure the admins can give you the email of that user manually.
with special thanks to very.concrete, I changed the forum banner to Elysium style. It hopefully will fit everyones taste - at least bits of it. Theres also a second design ready, which can be seen here: www.petheads.de

I still havent been able to identify the font used for ELECTRIC, it looks like its Monospaced.
Anyone with any luck identifying the font for Electric?
I know that now. The font is called Akkurat mono. :D
Since the forum allows to embed only 3 quotes (which is fine), is it possible to change the settings so that the quoting system automatically deletes the extra quotes from the replies? Other forums I visit do this. As nuisances go, removing extra quotes isn't a biggie, but if that can be avoided,...
Last post
Hmm, checked the net for any updates/hacks to include this feature here, but seems there isn't any (at the time). Will search for something helpful again in the evening!
I just added a feature, which may be known from other forums:
whenever you drag your mouse over a topic title in the forums, you can pre-read the first post of that topic.
Same with the last posts by dragging the mouse over the name of the last poster on the forumlists or the topic lists in the...
Everytime I post, I don't get the usual next screen. It just goes to white, but the post goes through properly. Just posting this in case anyone has had similar.

This has arrived in my private inbox and it's only fair therefore that I respond in public. As you can see, as well as being an erudite and witty member of this forum, s/he is also quite the tactician. The second paragraph particularly exemplifies this.
Is it just me / my browser, or was the font for topic names on the main pages & user names (and other items on the left in threads) changed to smaller today?

No, should be your browser. Check your Zoom Settings (if you use IE 8,9,10).
I was thinking as I sit here in the darkness of the room my girlfriend has designated as my area.

Yes, thank you very much! This is much better than browser colour overrides.
From today, all pictures (which are linked from outside this forum) in your posts, will be auto resized to 640x480.
So if you link to pictures larger than this size, they will be shown smaller in your posts!
You can see the full size by clicking on the picture!
Just for info. I get spam mails by administrator@petshopboys-forum.com.
These are obviously not sent by this forum, I didn't open them, I didn't get
PM.
I would suggest not to open these, they seem to content whatever rubbish.
Last post
I'm afraid, I can't do anything against that!
These emails don't came from our server here! They are from anywhere else, and so I can change the email account here, but it wouldn't change anything!
I also getting such emails from time to time on my psb-catalogue account.
I can forgive you that you did not rescume me from that It s a sin bin ,but if you will not fix my P.M.s ...its 3rd May already :wink:

You are being treated like you are at school because you're acting like you're at school.
You were asked nicely and then officially warned about your behaviour. You chose to ignore the warning with further forum spamming/trolling, which lead to your short forum holiday.
I couldn't get into the forum for most of the day (I emailed the error message I got). I have a feeling I'm not the only one who's been having issues given the paucity of posts.
Twitter asks a pw whenever I click on the banner. I am not on twitter and
I haven't even typed their URL in the browser beforehand. It only happens
on this forum.
I can close the window by clicking the red cross buiton but that's not quite
normal I'd guess ...
Sorry, this might be in a really obvious place, but I can't seem to find it... I want to change my login password, where do I go to do that? Thanks, Docoboy.

So talking about the forum itself; the way I ususally get onto the forum is by typing Pet Shop Boys Forum on google. And ususally the first thing to come up is the forum. But right now a whole bunch of pages have topped it. Does that mean they got more hits?
Last post
For the record:
we changed somethings on the site, so you always will be redirect to regardless what you enters in the address list of your browsers ( or petshopboys-forum.com).
So in the end all email notifications now will send with the correct links for all, who have notifications enabled....
Hi, I don't know why but, I have double posted quite a bit today. (The effect of seeing PSB's live! :wink: last night). Please could you delete my ones in PSB/Live tours - O2 Arena tickets ?? Thank you

Sorry about that chief.
It was giving me network timeouts and then server not responding.
And showed no post made, so I would try again.
On another phpbb based forum that I post on they provide the ability to include a youtube video in a post by surrounding the url in tags. Tha way to do it seems to be outlined in this article .
Do you think you could add it here, Steffen?

Thanks. I think I used it correctly. I pressed the YouTube buttons and pasted the URL .... Hmm. :wall:
That's the problem. You need to paste the actual YouTube code which you'll find at the end of the URL right after = ....
Hello :) I don't know what's wrong but, I have sent a few P.M's and clicked the Review button to check them etc.... For some reason it goes funny and I get a message that I can't connect to you and I loose my P.M's completely. Can anyone help please? :D It is becoming :grumble: :grumble:

Hi,Thank you for your reply. We found out that the problem is now happening with other sites as well at the moment. It isn't your web-site -it is my silly Internet provider! :grumble: I guess it started on here as this is where I was spending most of my time :D
Thanks for contacting me. You left no e-mail address to reply to, so I hope you see this.

I think we need to preserve certain threads/posts for posterity, if possible. We've already lost at least 5 years of the forum's history (Dot, Host, Aimoo) - which I think is a pity - and I wonder if we should start copying particularly interesting threads to the Archive forum or some other...
