Registration not working? Did you click your activation link & wait?

We notice that there are many who have not confirmed their activation and are wondering why they can't post, edit their profiles, see pictures, etc. If that is you, here is probably the reason.

• You agree to the conditions
• You fill out the form.
• You get your activation link email
• You click the activation link [most problems are starting here or at the next point.]
• Your account goes in the approval queue.
• Only after a moderator approves your account does it becomes active.
• You get an second email informing you that you are accepted.
• You begin posting.

After you filled out the registration form you would have seen this:

You are not finished! You have one final step

Check your email now. You will receive an email with the subject line Action Required to Activate Membership for DetroitYES Forums. You MUST follow the link in that email before you can post on these forums. Until you do that, you will be told that you do not have permission to post. NOTE: If you don't get the email be sure to check any spam or junk mail folders to make sure it was not moved there. This has happened to several others.

STEP FOUR: Await Moderator Approval.

Your registration will be reviewed by one of our moderators and your account will usually be approved in a hour or two but allow up to 24 hours.

You will receive an automated email notice once a moderator has approved your account with the subject line Account Validated at DetroitYES forums! Once that is received you will be able to immediately post, edit your profile and do all the other fun stuff.

[I would add to the above^ that if you do not find the email to be sure to check any junk mail or spam folders to make sure it the email did not land in one of those.

Once again!
