Hi all, long time away from 914W but not away from Porsche's

I recently met someone in person (bought a perfect replica of a GT cooler - see cooler porn below) who was trying to sign up and the sign up / verification process failed (twice I think)

Just wondering the process if its broken or a different process now

Copy of message previously sent to try and move it along for him

Have *** email to protect the innocent

Many thanks in advance
Jon


Hi admins,

I was wondering if you could check for me regarding a new UK user sign-up and whether there is a glitch in the system.

The prospective user is very active on the UK DDK Porsche forum and is a legitimate person—I have met him. Below is the key part of a message from WhatsApp. He has also tried signing up with a different username, “DarrenT65,” thinking there might have been an issue with his initial attempt.

Many thanks in advance,
Jon

User details:
Signed up as “Darren65” with the email *******@s*******carandvan.co.uk.

He has requested revalidation multiple times, but nothing has come through. He is unable to post, make changes, or contact anyone. It could just be a delay, or perhaps something has gone wrong and his registration has slipped through the cracks.

Looks like sign up worked. What seems to be the problem?

Sign up worked, fails at the next stage

I'm wondering if this is related to the blocked email notification issue way back when

I'm assuming an email verification is sent out from 914W server but the email never turns up and email is killed off as 914W is toggled as spammer & Darren has checked checked spam folder etc

Number of new member sign ups in similar purgatory

Thanks
Jon

FWIW I don't recall the emailing on this board ever working, at least for me.
