[TinderBox (UK)]

I just registered on Bladeforums, how long does it take before my account will become active.

As all of the forums are locked at the moment.

thankyou.

When I registered, I can post right away. But you have to be a Gold menber to sell.

I can`t even read post, they are all locked.

It`s only been a few hours since i registered.

When I signed up, I got an email right away that confirmed my email address. After I clicked the link my account was registered and ready to go. Check your spam folder? :shrug:

nothing in my spam folder.

I just noticed that you said you can't even READ threads? That's weird. I could read thread even before I registered. Maybe you need to contact someone at Bladforums.

I cant even get to the main page without logging out all i get is this.

Clear your cookies and temporary files and try again, edit: I see you are using firefox, does it show the same problem with IE?

Bladeforums doesn't have the most reliable server. There have been times when the site went down for days, even weeks! Wait a while more, then e-mail an Admin again.

 

[TinderBox (UK)]

the only way i can contact them is through a online form, I have tried clicking on a moderators name, but the log-in box shows up.

And once i log, I can`t see or do anything.
