Good point, that's not going to work Zuni.
Unless you make emails match.
Doesn't matter. It is not the real AT. I signed up when it started as Dennilfloss. It is not like the DB will transfer over. The whole point is to use the forums (stress test) and improve them.

Wait... could this somehow be causing the login problems? are the logins connected in any way?

Unless I'm the only one unable to "stay logged in" for more than one URL...

I get this error when attempting to view the forums though the link at the beginning of this thread (have tried after clearing cookies also):

I signed up at the new forum, but I never got my confirmation E-mail.

I signed up with the same username and info I use here. Any chance the confirmation E-mail could be resent?

I get the same problem as jliechty - two posts above.

This is on a clean system that had never known Anandtech and also on one that just recently (1 week) I started using.
both systems are behind a company firewall and proxy.

Incase you haven't realized by the variable names, he had an expiry date so it doesn't go on forever by mistake.

Yeah, but I hope they don't implement the forums here exactly as they existed there, because there were several annoying bugs that had not yet been fixed (including a serious usability error in the PM interface that I complained about multiple times but never saw fixed - that thread subscription update PMs appeared to come from individual users, instead of "ForumNotifier," making said PMs impossible to browse or delete as a group - Zuni, are you watching?). Oh well, I give up. :(

Sure, just very busy guys. What usability issue is that? Did you report it in the beta forums? As thats where to report it.

I've updated the code over there also to the current build so ensure your issue still exists and post a bug.
