By easing up on the \"?!\" ;)

Okay. But seriously, make sure that you did in fact click on the validation link within the email you received. If it gives you the \"Not Validated\" message:

Do you still have an activation code somewhere within the email? This is rather.. important ;)

You can try using the same email address to make another account, and see what happens. If it doesn\'t work, try using another email address (they\'re painless to sign up for, and I still have a billion Gmail invites decaying in various accounts). If it fails yet AGAIN... One of the higher ups, particularly Acraig, will have to be notified of the problem.

I had hoped that this would have been taken care of already.

Good luck!

I believe I know what Fluke is talking about (although only because I have a younger brother, who also doesn\'t speak what I\'d call English).  I created an account, clicked on the link in the email I received, entered a password, and jumped through the hoops.  When I tried to login, an in-game window popped up that said, \"No account found with that name.\"  I\'ve tried re-creating the account with all the same info, which of course was not allowed.

If anyone can provide help with this, please let me know.  I still have the validation email.  Thank you.
