The registration page says it is emailing an activation key but I do not get it. I have checked spam filters and junk mail, but nothing. suggestions?

I'm tagging Tommy the administrator in case he is needed. Post back if that works.

I tried logging in using Finch79 and finch79 with the password I had set up and it gives me an error message and if I try to sign in with my email address it says I have to enter my activation code which it does not sent to me. Sigh! And it won't let me reply to your answer without signing in, so I had to start a new thread.

Well, it still shows that Finch79 has an account, so I'm not sure what's going on unless you are using the wrong password. Let me try a few things and get back to you.

Is it normal for their username to be white, while everyone else's is in yellow?

I just registered as a test. I got the verification email with no issues. Not really sure what's going on. I'm tagging Tommy again. Might be awhile for him to see this.

Unless you are stuck on the name 'Finch79a', I would just try to delete the profile and re-register, at this point. Maybe that's too simple.?

No luck with registration. I even changed email address to another account - no luck. I asked the system to send me a new password - no luck. I can't find a way to remove my info from the system. Can you (administrator) completely remove all of my information on the system and I will try to start completely fresh with new "name" etc. If that does not work I guess I will be limited to lurking.

The account Finch79 has been deleted per your request.
Sorry for your trouble - we don't get very many registration issues because registrations are handled at the Proboards software level and there is not a lot I can do other than open a trouble ticket with them which I don't mind doing.
Just so I understand the facts - when you said you changed the email to another account - are you saying you registered a different account not named Finch79 under a different email and also did not receive an activation code on that account?
BTW, I merged your three threads here into one main thread to reduce confusion.

Also - you should be able to reply in this thread now. We allow non-logged in guests to post in this technical issues thread for the purpose of sorting through issues like this but we don't get very many guest posts and I just now realized that I had not fully granted the permission for guest to also "reply" in the thread.

I did not try to register a completely new name because the registration system defaults to asking for my activation code each time I put in an email address. Since you have deleted all my info I will try again with a totally new name. Thanks for your work on this.

Now that he’s in, shouldn’t be anything to stop oldtimer from changing his handle to Finch79a if he so desires, no?
