[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1396056, member: 112"]First of all guys, nobody knew this would happen. But it did, so apologies. To address problematic issues with the email notification system Coin Talk just recently started using a new email system. The new system fixed the previous problems, but it had another effect as well. Let me explain. Whenever anybody registers as a member of Coin Talk they have to provide a valid email address. But as time goes on, people often change their email addresses. But, they also often forget to update things like membership accounts at various web sites with their new email addresses. Anyway, this new email system that Coin Talk is now using validates the listed email addresses for all members of Coin Talk. And if your listed email address that you provided on registration is dead and no longer functional, the the software blocks your account. Those with blocked accounts can still log-in, they just can't do much of anything else. But there is an easy fix. So, if this has happened to you and you are having problems with your Coin Talk account, do the following. 1. log-in 2. click on [B]Settings[/B] in the upper right hand corner of your screen 3. scroll down a bit until you see [B]My Settings[/B] in the left hand column 4. click on [B]Edit Email & Password [/B] 5. when that window opens, enter your password where it says - [B]Enter your password to continue [/B] 6. then where it says [B]Edit Email Address[/B] type in your current and valid email address, and enter it again in the confirm box 7. click on [B]Save Changes [/B]Now before you ask I don't know how long it will take for the changes to take effect, but THEY WILL take effect. It may be immediate, it may take a few minutes, it may take a few hours - I don't know. But it will fix the problem for you.[/QUOTE]
