Philippines-Addicts

[Jade Snake]

Hi, I hope this is the right spot for this post.

 

I recently tried to register on Philippines-Addicts, as I'm thinking next time I head to SE Asia to try to fit in some time in Manila / AC, and would like to learn more about local conditions. However, the site rejected my email address, even though it is the same one I use for this board. Anyone have any idea why this might be so? I've emailed the admin on the other board, but haven't received a response. The boards look quite similar, so I am assuming they are sisters, and perhaps have the same admin, or at least the admins are in contact with each other? Anyone encountered similar problems, or know how to get around this? I guess I could just create a new email account, but I'd like to avoid this if possible, because it would get a bit clumsy having to check them.

 

Thanks

Did you get the validation email and verify your email address by clicking the link?

the site rejected my email address

 

If you got an error message during the registration process you should copy/paste the whole error message or even better, read it and try to understand what does it mean. It is not a rocket science since all of the standard error messages on boards are written in "for dummies" style.

Here's the msg: "The email address you used is not accepted by this board. Please select a different email address."

 

As you imply, the meaning is clear, but it would be helpful to know why my email address isn't accepted. Like I say, I don't really want to create a new address just for this board.

No, I don't even get that far. It rejects the email address I entered, which is a perfectly valid email address (See previous post for text of msg).
