Another new user won't work, and the one I did earlier doesn't either. poly made a new user though and he was able to log into the forums with it.
Any idea what the differences are? That's going to be the key to figuring this out.
I did it as straight line as is possible. 1) Logged out as polymerase. 2) clicked register. 3) 10-10 name 4) password 5) used a second email address 6) added 7+2 I seemed to be registered at that point to MacTech. I then clicked on Forums and needed to log in and that was that.
