Heads Up, August Tales Fam: Username Glitch, Here’s the Fix!
Turns out, our social media registration system decided to have a bit of fun. If you didn’t choose a username, it took matters into its own digital hands, assigning random ones like “XV7DJCHUK” (no, that’s not a robot uprising code). Naturally, we thought these were spam bots and, in a hasty move to protect our fortress, we deleted those accounts. Apologies for the digital whiplash! Just shoot us your preferred username and name, and we’ll have you back on board in no time. Security is a big deal for us, but so is making sure you can enjoy our mantra: Trade. Read. Repeat.
Username Mix-Up: What Happened and How We’re Fixing It
At August Tales Comics, we’re all about two things: security and community. So when something goes wrong, we don’t bury the lead—we fix it. Recently, we stumbled upon an issue with our social media registration system, and in true August Tales fashion, we’re here to break it down, show you how we’re fixing it, and get you back to trading, reading, and repeating.
So, What Exactly Happened?
Picture this: our registration system, designed to make things easy, went rogue. If you didn’t choose a username, it decided to create one for you—enter “XV7DJCHUK” and its band of unpronounceable cousins. Not the most user-friendly of names, we admit. Naturally, in our well-meaning effort to protect the site from spam bots (because, hey, who wants Skynet knocking at the door?), we flagged and deleted these accounts, thinking they were just automated junk.
Here’s where it gets tricky: those random, jumbled usernames? They weren’t bots. They were you. Real users, caught in the crossfire of our overzealous bot defense. It wasn’t until we took a deep dive into our system that we realized the mix-up.
How We’re Fixing It
First things first—we want you back. We’re working to restore your account with a username you can actually remember (and proudly share). Here’s what you need to do:
- Email Us: Drop us a line at info@augusttales.com with your preferred username, along with your first and last name.
- Confirmation: Once we’ve recreated your account, you’ll get a confirmation email so you can jump right back in and continue trading comics, reading reviews, and connecting with your fellow fans.
We get it, this situation wasn’t ideal, and we appreciate your patience while we get things sorted.
What’s Next?
Moving forward, we’ve made sure that random usernames like “XV7DJCHUK” will no longer be assigned, and we’ve added extra layers of checks to avoid this kind of digital mix-up in the future. Our goal? To make sure that any unusual activity on the site is flagged properly—without accidentally booting real users in the process.
We take privacy and security seriously at August Tales, and while this was a stumble, we’re committed to making your experience here better and more secure than ever before.
Let’s Get Back to “Trade. Read. Repeat.”
At the end of the day, we’re all about building a strong, thriving community of comic book lovers. Whether you’re here for the latest reviews, trading graphic novels, or just discovering hidden gems, August Tales Comics is where the magic happens. Once this issue is resolved, we’re confident you’ll be back to doing what you love: Trade. Read. Repeat.
Thanks for sticking with us, and we’re excited to get you back in action.
