Probably due to this forum having far to many lurkers/watchers taking up space on the server.

I suggest trying to catch one of the people able to activate your account in chat or something.... but yeah.... would be cooler if the process was automatic

I know from experience that forum registrations are flooded by spammers. Automation isn't always an option.

I tried to contact forums@autosport.com 3 times. First time already 2 months ago and nothing.... until now.

Maybe admins were in holiday after busy year :drunk:

s'funny. Mine was completed in just 2 days. Even after I rather rudely re-sent my validation by accident.

(Thanks for that, by the way!)

Mine also took 2 days. Bit annoying but that's just the way it is. Just got to be patient.
