Account Verification Notice Next Week

Next week we will be prompting forum members to verify their contact info as they login to the forum.

In the coming weeks, we will be moving towards a simpler login using your email address (which is private) and password but first we want to make sure the address associated with your account is accurate.

Many members have ancient e-mail addresses associated with their current accounts and so we will be asking every member to go through a simple verification process (similar to when you registered your forum account) before we switch to email/password logins. Next week as you login we will ask you to affirm your address is correct or to update it. As you do this we will send you a link via that email address to click to complete the verification process. You can then proceed as usual to login with your current user/pass information.

Once members have had time to verify existing addresses (or update them if needed) we will make the change to logging in with that address (a few weeks from now). We appreciate your patience as we go through this process.

This is part of the reason for the update. A lot of folks have this same issue. The verification process will help verify that your account is up to date and the e-mail address correct. When we begin the verification process, you will see the screens when you have (automatically) logged in. For almost everyone this will be a seamless and painless process. For a few folks, they will need to update their e-mail address. It will be a week or so before we do this - just posting now to make sure every one is aware that it's coming....

There's also that little matter of cleaning out the database of members who have left or passed away...

Well, using the “new posts” tab, it looks like I logged in on 9/26. But I didn’t get any prompt then either, and my settings have me entering my PW each time I log in.

Next week can be up to 14 days away no?
IE the end of next week.

But it matters not. It will happen when it happens.

The evolution of this thread reminded me of the sign nailed to the door of a bar: FREE BEER TOMORROW!

Just a note that this was turned on today. You will see the prompt when you login. be sure to read the info about the e-mail address and make sure it's still accurate. There is an option to update if not. Once you have clicked the "validate link - be sure to check your e-mail. Click on the verification link in your e-mail and then you'll be done.

Tomorrow has finally come, and it turns out to be much ado about nothing. Thanks to the admin team!

Now where was that free beer again?

Be patient.

It took several times getting the notice and clicking on it before the email actually showed up. Then while verifying, I got the message that the link was not valid.

Finally, after repeatedly trying to figure out why, and re-trying, it went through and I was validated.

The links appeared blank on my screen.. they did appear when I moved the cursor over them but it threw me off for a minute.

Also the verification popped up when I was relying to a post. My reply disappeared and I did not feel like re-typing it.

Other than that, no big deal. NOW I AM LEGAL!

yes I also thought the email was a bit slow.. but not as slow as the Microsoft verification that took a few hours. Just wait for it. There is no need to hurry the process.

Whole process took less than a minute, for me.

Ok this is getting crazy. Every single time I respond or do anything on the board I get this message.
Email Address Validation

"We are requiring members to validate their current email address. Please click here to receive your validation email at [e-mail address redacted]. This is the address currently associated with your account.
If you wish to change your e-mail address, click here.
If you have already taken the above action, please check your email and click the validation link to stop this annoying popup message from displaying in the future."


I have already confirmed more than once.
