What else shall I do?

Post by Flimbo »

Hey guys,

almost 2 weeks ago I filled in my registration form.
An automated reply said I would have got an email once my account had been activated. Still waiting... how long does it usually take?!

Cheers,
Giacomo

The board got flooded by spammers recently, and the admin is on vacation. I'll drop him an e-mail to make sure he sees this.

Say, could you try to register again? I had to delete 2,000 spam accounts and I think yours got caught in that mass-deletion.

I stopped the spammer from being able to register with his script, but things should be A-OK for you if you try it now.

Thanks.

I guess you could say that Flimbo's been in limbo!
When you need my help because I'm ruining everything, don't look at me.

LOL... exactly! And seems I can't come back, regardless of the nickname or password I enter.

Hey Rob, could it be you blocked my email address?

Sorry, I forgot to update the text where it tells you the registration auth code. It's zork2 - try that and let me know? If it still doesn't work, tell me your e-mail address and desired username and I'll create the account and e-mail you once it's working.

I apologize for all the trouble with these piece-of-crap spammers.

Jesus Fucking Christ, I have said spammers are the equivalent of either locusts or jellyfish (as they are a pain to have around), garbage lifeforms with no value, but this is ridiculous!
Given the general rise in expenses and fall in the typical standard of living, the future ain't what it used to be.
