Matrix Games Forums

I registered for the Slitherine forum, but after I login I cannot access the forum index, I remain locked in a "Forum Index" page which has the message "This board has no forums." Huh??? There does not appear be a way to contact anyone at Slitherine for help with this. Any suggestions? Thx.

This is the link to the Slitherine forums. From there you can get to the sub forums.

Thanks, but I'm aware of that - that's the page I'm referring to. It doesn't allow me to access the forums after I login. I get the message I describe above.

Can you go to the forums before you log in?

Yes. But after I login I get the "This board has no forums" message.

That's wierd.

Are you logging in on the main forum page or one of the sub forums?

Tried it both ways, same result.

That sucks.

It happened to me also. I had to logout then I could get in forum....strange

Clean your browser cache.
Or try with another browser.

I've cleared the cache several times. No, I'm not going to download another browser just to access their forum, not worth the hassle frankly. Thanks.

That's very wierd. Are you blocking cookies? The site requires cookies to allow you to login correctly.

Check ur security settings, they are very touchy when you try overseas sites.

What he said ^ [:)].

If you can check whether you are blocking cookies too aggressively that would be a first step to working out what the issue is. Also, what browser are you using?

Not blocking cookies, using IE9, same problem on 2 different computers, also tried on Firefox unsuccessfully, same ID as on Matrix forum. Thx.

I suppose that if you don't login everything is normal. The issue is only after login, right?

I don't know if it's alright if I join this thread - I'm having exactly the same problem as DerTroof, so I do not want to create another one. I sent a mail to info@slitherine.co.uk, but it's Sunday of course, so I'll have to wait for official reply for a bit.

I registered on Slitherine just today, and I also get the same response on the forum site, so I guess it's the same problem. I can freely browse the forum, while anonymous (except the closed forums, of course). I get "This board has no forums" message only when logged in. If I try to access a particular subforum (via bookmarks) - access is disallowed.

I am able to enter the User Control Panel - but for example I am not allowed to send or receive private messages - it's forbidden.

I already checked the cookies option (clearing them), tried Safe Mode in Firefox, IE browser access, turned off virus and firewall software for a few minutes etc. I am guessing there is some problem with forum user privileges of DerTroof and me. I tried googling "This board has no forums" and I have mostly found discussions about setting user rights in phpBB.

There is another problem for me also - maybe unconnected to the first so I'll mention it just in case. I tried playing a game of multiplayer. I issued a challenge with the DLC scenario Piatek (I copied it to the Scenarios folder). I played the first turn, the played the second and third - only to find out I was still playing the first turn - again. After this, I think my opponent got bored (can hardly blame him, I do not even know, what he saw). But I guess it might be a totally different problem with different causes.

By the way, this is my first post on either of PzC forums, so hello!

I'll pm tomorrow Pip or Petitrouge from Slitherine.

And welcome, orlinos. [:)]
