[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 2998757, member: 112"]First of all this - OK, I should have realized that - sorry :( Only members who have confirmed their email address and have full posting privileges have access to that section of the forum. Next, this - No you were not good to go because you never did confirm your email address when you got that email. It took some doing to be able to show you this but I figured it was the only way to really explain things - for you and others - so I did it. First of all, when you registered your screen should have looked like this - [ATTACH=full]741437[/ATTACH] Now obviously I have scribbled out the user name and email I used to be able to capture this image. But where I have scribbled my user name and email out is where your user name and email would be. Next, if you went to your email this is what the email you received from CT would have looked like - [ATTACH=full]741439[/ATTACH] Again I have scribbled my name/email out, and the last part of the link that was sent to me. But that is a picture of the actual email and the link I have been talking about in my previous posts. What you needed to do when you received that email - was click on that link. If you had clicked on the link this is what would have come up on your screen. [ATTACH=full]741440[/ATTACH] If you did not click on that link in the email, and/or if that did not come up on your screen, then you have not confirmed your email address. Now that's all anyone has to do and what happens when you register on CT. You register, CT sends you an email, you open that email and MUST click on the link the email contains. You then see the confirmation window. If you did not do or see even 1 of those things then your email address has not been confirmed. And I can tell you Proof86 - your email address has not been confirmed because as a CT admin I can see that it has not been confirmed. This is what takes us back to the possible problems I described in my previous posts - all the various things that could have screwed up the process. I have no idea which specific thing it was in your particular case - but it was most definitely one of them. You said this above - Well, I did a bit of checking and your email provider (whom I'm not going to mention by name so don't you do it either - for your own safety) has a long record of having all kinds of problems. To see it for yourself just take everything after the @ sign in your email address and plug it into a Google Advanced Search and hit the enter on your keyboard. You'll soon see what I mean - emails not received, emails you think you sent but never actually get sent by your provider, etc etc etc. All the same kind of things I described in my previous posts. You also said this - Yup, I get it, I understand. But what you need to understand is that if you wish to be an active and participating member with full posting privileges, and forum access privileges - you don't have any choice BUT to set up a new email account and register all over again. And please understand, all I'm trying to do is help you out. There is nothing, absolutely nothing, that I can do, or anybody else can do, to solve your problem. Only YOU can solve the problem. And you can only do it by following my directions and suggestions. And it's really pretty easy to do it. And if having 2 email accounts is what bothers you - that's an easy thing to fix. Once you get registered all you have to do is have your new email account forward all emails to your old email account - problem solved. But personally, given the track record that current email provider has - I'd quit using them if I were you. Now hopefully all of this has helped you, and others that have the same problem.[/QUOTE]
