Opps...Okay my dad was on a bussiness trip (he showed me the game)he found out why the verifacation was acting funny. Comcast and many others consider it major spam and filter and destroy it before it even gets to your spam box even if you do allow all E-mail to get in unlike G-mail and many others.

(P.S. sorry about going crazy again now Im happy  :) see you in the game!!!)

And that's why I had posted this:

i have been waiting forever and tried 3 email adresses and none of them work,

wolfboy1111@{no spam]aim.com
wolfboy2111@{no spam]aim.com
black2111@{no spam]aim.com

*edit*

someone plz help me  Cry Cry Cry

Could it be that the provider considered the verification email as spam and block it or moved it to a spam folder?

Maybe somebody should update the part "Trouble with Verification Emails?" in the Thread "PS Tech Help Guide" and delete all the posts about this problem?

Also the reason we say use a different ISP not just a different account aol/hotmail/yahoo are well known for being spam sources so always try and use a trusted ISP for account verification

My theory is proved G-mail is one of the few that dont consider it spam so if you dont already get a G-mail

you have three options:

1) try to have it resent and check your spam/deleted items folder in your mail to see if it got kicked out there.
2) try to register with a different email; one that comes from a different provider, like gmail.
3) send an email to Rizzin, from the mail address you tried to register with, asking her to validate the account for you.

the email issue seems to be a misconfigured MTA (mail transport agent) at fragnetics. according to this bug report fragnetics has been informed and will fix it, if not already happened.
So why do I love when I still feel pain?
When does it end, when is my work done?

Yeah ive tried 2 different providers and still haven't gotten the verification e-mail. I do believe it must be a problem with the mail server with which they are using. Could an admin please activate my account? I got the verification for the forum account just fine but the one to actually play the game just isnt coming in. I've tried every possible thing. I would greatly appreciate some help with my situation. Thank you.

If you've read some other posts on the forums, or searched. You would see that we are having some verification e-mail issues. All of those posts typically have a line from me saying "Please e-mail me from the account that you tried registering from...".

The two admins that I have seen mentioned, both have their emails hidden so I cannot email them with the account that I am trying to get verified. =(

please read what i said again and click the quote link then you can see rizins profile that has her email address in it and she will help you, the admins are too busy to deal with this but she has a few minutes to help you.
