If you recently registered for our forum, but have yet to receive the activation email, please try logging in now with the username/password you selected. We require an administrator to approve all registrations (to prevent spammers), but for some reason all of the recent notifications we get were sent to my spam folder and some were permanently lost. I manually activated all recent user accounts, but I'm not sure if the system sent out the "You have been approved" emails to people.
Additionally, some of you may have been experiencing extremely slow load times for our site recently. We discovered a bug in some code that was causing the problem and have removed it. Things seem quicker now. My apologies on both counts.
