I have registered an account as to work on those dual-slot updates and to help around- but, the server didn't send me an email, so I can't verify with a password. If there is a delay in the email, then that makes sense, but if there isn't, then I have a problem. Thanks!
 
No, actually what I had meant was that I have not received the email telling me the ID so that I could make changes- and my email was correct; I checked my email in preferences. I was just wondering if this was a normal problem. If it has something to do with my email host- it's aim, so it should work...

I don't know what the problem is... I was hoping one of you could help me. Thanks!
 
trombonator: I don't know what BP means- but my Bulbapedia (if that's what you mean) is Hurristat, also.
 
Try logging in with your password, resend the confirmation email, and then try it.
 
Done- and I have waited for about 12 hours and it has still not appeared... the confirmation email is not sending :(
 
Okay, here. Create a new account called "hurristat2" and see if you can get the confirmation e-mail with that one. New users are signing up and editing, so perhaps it was a glitch for a short period of time.

If it doesn't work, I'll block the new account. If it does, then we'll go from there.
 
I hate this kind of problem. Happened to me twice last month. All you can really do is just get a different name and keep trying. Hopefully you'll get through.
 
Well, I tried getting a new one but I got this message:

"From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.

The database is currently locked to new entries and other modifications, probably for routine database maintenance, after which it will be back to normal.

The administrator who locked it offered this explanation: Pathetic children with no life are slowing our servers.

Also, on a related note, LOL MAGNEDETH. Hopefully, this should subside soon.

Well, the idiot who's creating all these accounts is using the same offensive e-mail address over and over. The e-mail address blames a certain group of people, who shall remain nameless, for 9/11. Not sure what I'm thinking of will end this, but it may be worth a try...

(UPDATE: The offending e-mail address has finally been authenticated by an account that did vandal moves. Grawp might have finally shot himself...)

shiningpikablu: well that's depressing. :( I'll just wait until later to try and create a new username that I *hope* will go through.
