Default Can't access forums
For some reason I can't access all of the forums. I'm only seeing what non-registered people see. I put in a support ticket and pm'ed some Gator people here on the boards (via the buddy list because I can barely access anything because it thinks I'm unallowed or something).

Could it be the theme I'm using? I can't change the theme because it won't let me have access.

Agreed. Did you change your e-mail address or something major like that? Might have something to do with it.....

I think I did a while back, but just in case I clicked the verify link in the email I received and it gave me this:

"Your account has been activated but you are currently in the moderation queue to be added to the forum."

You'd think the software would know that it is crediting you with 194 posts and therefore by definition couldn't be new...

Just remember that you can always contact live support and keep demanding to "Fix it Now", if you remember "The Mule" and his solution to an email address change

For some reason I forgot about Live support. I might just give that a try since nobody seems to be fixing this.

I don't think so. He was around for awhile...If I remember correctly he said something about a change in hosts later on.

I hope he hurries up. He's probably really busy... or not doing anything.

Sorry, but it seems activation is a problem on the forums and it takes too long to get fixed when changing your email address.
