will need to check for those in more detail. Is this just happening since today, if known?!

Weird, just got a 500 for myself... did just give the web components a hard restart..

Thanks for watching out. As said I gave the webserver and the PHP backend behind a restart already, so may be gone with that already.

The site was totally unreachable a minute ago. Server 500 errors for every page I could try. Also, just before it went down - the avatar pictures stopped loading again.

Hm ok strange, think I will have to take deeper looks in logs to find some reasons.

 

Edit: Think I found what was bugging us, changed some minutes ago - I will check the logfiles tomorrow, if the issue has been fixed.

@Plumber Brickshelf is accepting new accounts again. Of all image sharing websites I like Brickshelf the most.

You're welcome! I noticed it when I looked for an old picture of mine. It was a very pleasant surprise to find Brickshelf fully functional.

Ah, so *that's* why I couldn't see my profile when I first joined. Good to know it's an anti-spam measure, makes sense. Does that 10-post limit apply to sending private messages, too?

@marcuschn*edit* what Jim answered... :P

@marcuschn not sure about the private message restriction - I reckon it should not apply for private messages.

You do need 10 posts to use the PM system.

Hello, I follow the Marvel and DC yearly forums, and I have a stream set-up for approximately 10 years that lists just the unread messages in forums I follow.  This year, for some reason, even though I follow the 2026 forums and I am not reading them, this steam is EMPTY. I have tried messaging using "Contact Us" button, but no response.  Please help!

Thanks @Black Falcon for pointing the in right direction!

@RobbieHxC We seem to have some bug / issue since end of 2025 / beginning of 2026. And it is affecting exacatly what you are describing not working. Unfortunately I do not have a solution to offer.

Possibly follow the mentioned other topic to get updates on the matter. I still need to look deeper into this as the vendor was not really of much help. :(

Thank you both for the info!

Agree with the restriction but the limit is q high though and encourages spamming...

[aFrInaTi0n]

@Kay As we are mainly a forum we hope this can be understood as allowing our members some protection.

I consider for example "famous builders" also as our welcomed guests who shall feel comfortable and comfy within our forums. I believe as a famous person you would not like to have 20+ new messages in your inbox on a daily basis..

You may see it in some positive way: You are nearly there already. And believe me, after your next post you are part of the trusted members & your mindset may suddenly shift to "new members need to prove 1st they can understand and follow the rules of conversation" & in consequence you may naturally understand any message in your inbox as a sane one already. 

Kind regards
