Ask a Moderator - Part 22

[Gmariam]

To piggy back on the last review issue, I am currently getting a lot of email notifications for duplicate reviews. I have four duplicates at the moment - one of the last ones I got was actually a triplicate! I'm guessing this has to do with other current issues but thought I would add it to the list just you guys know. And if anyone could nip in and delete the extras for me at some point when things are fixed, that would be great. They are here:

Is the queue closed again?

Because I can't manage stories again. . .

[mugglemathdork]

The queue is down for maintenance. We've had a couple of hiccups lately, and we're looking into it. We are so sorry for the inconveniences, but hopefully we can get it back up and running.

According to the homepage of MNFF the queue has re-opened but all chapters in the queue when it closed were lost. However when I go to Manage Stories the two one-shots I had in the queue before it closed are still there. Should I remove them and resubmit them?

Um, I just thought I'd echo Alex's question, and add one. When the same thing happened to me (I submitted a oneshot before the queue closed, then, upon reading the announcement, resubmitted it only to find that the original one was still there) I went to delete one of them, but then, suddenly, there were five copies of the story somehow. I deleted them ASAP, leaving the newest version only. Not sure if this is a glitch/my laptop, but I thought I'd let you know anyway, mods

[mugglemathdork]

Alex: Yes, delete your stories and re-submit. According to Rosie, the stories were all deleted so that means they were lost to Limbo and cannot be retrieved.

Soraya: Thanks for letting us know of this glitch. I'll pass it along to Rosie, our coder.

secret_hermione: The Gauntlet was a drabble challenge where users signed up and were sent prompts. The user who finished the prompts earned points for their House. We haven't run a Gauntlet in a while due to inactivity and because the mod who ran it has long since left MNFF. However, it might come back in the future. Keep an eye on it.

I just joined the BetaBoards and I found an interesting-looking thing called the Gauntlet. However, the last post was made in May of 2010. Is the Gauntlet still happening? And if so, when will the next one begin?

I was tryingto make a thread in Poetry, Anyone? and this error message came up:

iwannabeanauror, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1.Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2.If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

I'm not sure why this happened; can someone clarify, please?

[mugglemathdork]

Please try posting again, and let me know if it still didn't work. I changed your primary usergroup to Gryffindor instead of Registered User so that might have done the trick. Just an oversight. =]

I want to take a class on OC's, and a while back I wanted to take one on writing Humour, but somehow when I try to reply it tells me I don't have permission to do that. Why is this? Is it a glitch, or is it a certain number of posts I need to make, or what?
