Sirs, I have a problem with this (though it was only this morning that I signed up and was approved, so take your time, I'm in no hurry)

When I funded I had a different e-mail on my indiegogo account, but I changed it on my account like 2 months ago and then signed up here with this new e-mail. What should I do ?
Please PM us with your old e-mail, and a link to a proof-of-pledge screencap (You can see it on your IGG profile under "My contributions"

I received my posting privileges about 4 hours ago, and still need my backer status. I did sign up with my indiegogo bound e-mail.

Hi there. My account was approved a few hours ago now and my backer status doesn't seem to have been applied (I signed up with my IGG address)

Thanks.

ETA!! Woo, thanks very much :D

Sorry to bother, but I don't have mine. I signed up and got approved yesterday, so it's been well over an hour. Signed up with the same email I use for IGG, but my contribution was made with Paypal where I use my other email, so maybe that's causing the problem? I'm sorry if it is.

Signed up late last night, I have posting privileges but no backer status yet. I used the same email as my indiegogo account so I'm not sure what's up.

I'm not sure when I was given posting privileges, but it has definitely been more than an hour since I set my avatar and made my first post. I still don't see a backer tag, so I guess that's probably an issue. Assistance would be much appreciated!

EDIT: Just checked my e-mail. Seems I got an alert on being given posting privileges about 9 hours ago. I guess I missed the one hour mark by a bit.

I have become an approved member and can finally reply to threads and change avatar. Is backer status the 'Crowdfund Backer' flair everyone seems to have but I am still a 'New Member'.

Heya.

I should have backer status as well. I used the same e-mail I used for IGG to sign up.

Thanks!

Looking into permission for the people that have posted so far and remain unbacker'd, then processing the third batch of approvals. Stand by for permissionating.

Well... I can't find anywhere to change my signature... or make one. I know that some are able to do it, but I can't
Sorry about that. Permissions keep conflicting with each other instead of being superseded by higher levels. Should be fixed now. 350 character limit, 5 links maximum, no images allowed signatures enabled for everyone. Might tweak the values as needed.

Also cleaned up the thread. Please keep the thread on topic to the issue of backer permissions!

Third batch of approvals processed. We have, however, around two dozen people in the queue for backer status who haven't yet confirmed their e-mail address, which means they have been approved for general forum posting, but not for backer status.

Please confirm your e-mail address by clicking the autonatic link the forum system e-mailed you, before requesting backer status, as for matters of account security, we can't elevate privileges for unconfirmed accounts.

Thank you!

Hi, I haven't gotten my backer status yet. Was wondering if it was because I changed my indigogo email during the funding? I used the same email that it has now to sign up here, so it wouldn't mess it up, right?

Hey, so I was a crowdfund backer, I signed up with the same e.mail, but it's not listing me as a crowdfund backer here on the forums.

Please PM us with your old-email and a screencap of your pledge (you can find it in your IGG profile under "my contributions")

Just tossing my name in as well, as it appears I still don't have Backer status.

I don't believe I have the correct backer status either. I signed up yesterday (?) and never received a permissions e-mail, and yet I was able to change my avatar so I don't know (haha). I used the same e-mail here as IGG. Thank you! :)

Hey guys!

If you're a crowdfund backer, have signed up with your indiegogo-bound e-mail, and it has been more than an hour since you got general forum privileges, but you still don't get backer status, please post in this thread and we'll sort you out manually.

Those of you who signed up with different e-mails, please PM us (click on avatar, "Start a conversation") so we can verify you and switch you manually.

Please notice that all accounts (backers and regulars) must be approved by the batch system we're currently iterating on, so "I can't post/change avatar" issues just mean your account's not approved for general posting privileges yet.

Also, let's keep the thread on the topic of backer status only. There's no need to post to let us know you've already been switched, and unrelated issues should be kept off the thread.

Thanks for your patience!

Thank you!
It's been more like a day for me

Howdy! Missing my status. Got forum access around 2 days ago, and I signed up with the same email as my Indiegogo.

I had at one point refunded my contribution and raised it to a higher tier. Don't know if that's what happened to everyone, but it's the best guess I have as to why it isn't batch processing correctly since you said you were having issues with permissions superseding each other, maybe it's accidentally processing the refund as a higher priority than the contribution replacing it.

Either that, and/or that I raised my contribution tier in the last 6 hours or so of the campaign.

The batch script is a bit sensitive to capitalization.
