Cap'n Refsmmat Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Could you be more specific? Your account here is already activated; which forum are you trying to access? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randolpin Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 In the other forums. Even here, I only uses twitter which autoactivates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itoero Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 It's often via an activation e-mail. It happens it takes a while before it is sent...it's not always automatically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is normally a registration form where you provide email and password. Then you usually get an email with a link you need to click (to confirm it is your own email address). If you don't get the email, check your spam folder as it may have been wrongly identified as spam or junk mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Mods often have to send the e-mail....they can chose not to send one. You have to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randolpin Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Please excuse for not knowing how to check my email. That is my problem in registering any forums. Now I ask: When I made an email, what application or website to check it and to know any notifications of it. I tried it in email app but it doesn't work.

Do you have an email address? If so, how do you read your email? If not, you will need to create an email account with Google, Hotmail, Outlook, Yahoo, or whatever. (Does Yahoo still exist?)

Create email account using google, etc. before using it to register in any forums? What I did is that I directly made an email to the registration process without using google or etc. Thank you for clarifying by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you create your Twitter account? Surely that needs an email address? And how did you provide an email address to the registration process if you don't have an email address? I am very confused! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made an email address for my twitter account and it also requires activation. But I don't wait for the activation message. I did not receive it because I don't know how to.I just register to this forum using my twitter account and now, I autoactivated. I use emails. I have gmail, yahoo mail but the activation process in registering forums, I don't know how. Edited July 28, 2017 by Randolpin grammar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know how to read your email? If you use email, you must know how to read your email. No? You just give the website your email address and they will send you an email to activate the account. You click on the link in the email and that proves that you can read your email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strange Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Maybe you need to get a 12 year old to explain how to use email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randolpin Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 I admittedly need a twelve year old. I am not shy about it. I have a teachable heart. What is important is learning not criticisms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strange Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 (edited) Let's take it one step at a time. You say: "I use emails. I have gmail, yahoo mail" But then you say: "I don't know how to check my email." So does this mean you have created email accounts but have never used them? To be more specific: have you ever sent someone an email? Have you then read their reply? Edited July 28, 2017 by Strange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I mean is that I use emails in the registration which is not registered in either gmail, yahoo mail etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
