Title: registration seems to be broken
Post by: Greene622 on December 16, 2010, 07:09:57 pm
i'm doing this under a friend's account but i've tried to register twice (yesterday and today) to this forum and no confirmation email was sent. ever.  i know what you're thinking,... "check the spam folder".  there's nothing in there either.  when i try to log in with the (not yet) registered names it tells me that the account is not yet confirmed and i have the option to resend the confirmation email. i've tried this more than once as well.  i click the button and i get a message that says another email has been sent but above it says there was an error.  the user id i tried to register was user #6702.  i tried again as user #6716 using a different name and email address under a different domain.  still no luck!

thanks

Hi and welcome to the Gigabyte Forum.

I am sorry that you seem to be having problems with the registration procedure and you are not the only one that I have heard of. I will contact the Forum Administrator and get him to look into it tomorrow.

Just to keep you up to date, runn3R is trying to solve the problem even over the weekend (shows his dedication and how seriously he takes the forums problems). It might take a bit longer however if help is needed.
