Big Change for Users

leave a comment »

We started Kountr, simple. When first asked for persistent features we opted to use sessions and client side cookies to achieve these features. The Your Kounts and Your Recent sections were achieved this way.

Recently we added the notion of users. When you joined we would sweep up all the kounts you “owned” and make this right in the database. For the last couple weeks I have been trying to maintain these two seperate systems for ownership of kounts.

Bugs and new feature requests have pushed me to remove the cookie based system. Now if you want to own your kounts, then you need to join the site. It is just about the easiest site to join. Provide a username and email and you are immediate joined and logged in. We email your password for the next time you need to login.

If you join Kountr and would like to take ownership of your kounts, just send us some feedback, which kounts, and we will make it right.

We appreciate your patience during these bumpy changes and hope you will enjoy and be inspired by the new features we are developing.
