Unable to reach Esee website / forum from Netherlands

invalid@example.com (KnOeFz) — Wed, 22 Jan 2025 12:22:46 +0000

Since about 2 weeks I can't reach the forum of the website from the Netherlands.
When I try through a VPN that simulates me being located in the USA it does work.
That's how I'm writing this message right now.
Dit you guys change something?
I 've tried various ISP's that all make the website unavailable.

Hope this can be resolved.

Email notifications and 2 factor authentication

invalid@example.com (beestokk) — Sun, 19 May 2024 05:45:48 +0000

Hey all or @Strigidae - I've been having trouble getting emails from the forum - biggest issue as a result is it is preventing me from getting 2 factor authentication codes to log in when necessary. Today I had to use a backup code because the email never came through, despite trying multiple times to have an email sent.

I had a similar issue over on Bushcraft USA and they had to address something to correct it, believe the email provider had made a change that BCUSA wasn't...

Access Issues

invalid@example.com (Bozho) — Mon, 30 May 2022 19:15:10 +0000

Is anyone from outside of US experiencing access issues?
I have a timeout error with 3 different internet providers, that's 3 different Bulgarian IP addresses. Currently I can only access the ESEE site and forum via a proxy site, otherwise I get a timeout error.

PSA: secure your account.

A fellow over on the BCUSA forums had his account hacked and all sorts of mischief ensued.

The ESEE forums here make multi factor authentication easy and you should use it. I do. Also make sure the password you use here is unlike any other place you visit on the inner tubes.

Just a note to help us all be safe online. We all probably carry more than one knife. And damn good ones. Carry more than one internet knife and make sure they are all damn good.

Previous membership - can it be retrieved?

invalid@example.com (FTG-05) — Sun, 20 Feb 2022 02:08:24 +0000

I joined the ESEE forum when it split opened after splitting from the Bladeforums site. Lost track, hobbies changed, life happened. I could not find my old membership info a couple days ago; so I reupped.

Can someone find it for me? I'll need a PM from a Mod/Admin, so I can share my old e-mails.

Thanks,

Al

New members:Why cant i post?

invalid@example.com (Strigidae) — Mon, 25 Mar 2019 16:35:31 +0000

New members now will have to be approved prior to posting in an effort to stop or slow down spammers. We will get to applications as soon as possible but delays up to 24 hours or more are to be expected.

Forum down today?

invalid@example.com (Reno Lewis) — Tue, 18 Dec 2018 22:02:56 +0000

For a few hours today (from about 1200 to 1600 hrs PST), the forum was showing a "Error 404 not found" page for me on all devices.

And now that the forum seems to be working, the normal banner at the top of the forum isn't showing up.

Everything alright?

How to send private mesages (PM)

invalid@example.com (Strigidae) — Wed, 13 Jun 2018 13:42:35 +0000

Just a quick tip for sending private messages/conversations that cannot be viewed by others. Click on the desired persons avatar and locate the start conversation tab and click on it. It will take you to a conversation/private message screen and you can enter you subject and text there. Once done click the start conversation button.

Alternatively, you can use the inbox tab at the top of the page by your name and it will take you to your inbox. There is a tab at the top for "start...
