FAQ: I'm not being able to validate my new account!
Recently, (insert a big and strong insult here, or more than one) Burst.net has cut our Exim services. Exim is a software used for local mailing (I think), which is what this forum uses to email it users. So, the forum tries to use it, it fails and the Mail Delivery Service (which works), send the email to webmaster@ppmsite.com. The result is that both Sk8erkid and I have our junk mail flooded with over 40 emails from the forum (if he didnt deleted any of them).
We don't turn off the user validation of this forum because of bots and other few reasons, so the registereing through normal ways is technically suspended.
So, here's a guide to validate your account.
1) Register your account normally, by filling the name, password that you don't use anywhere (I.e.: 12345) and providing a valid email account.
2) Email webmaster@ppmsite.comusing the email account you filled in the registration with the following title: "I want to validate my account". And put any message on it. Do not write any password or personal data. We don't care at these things.
3) Sk8erkid or I will send you the validation email that matches your email.
4) Follow the link of the validation email and change your password to the one you really desire.
The following people in the list below that want their account validated, should start at the step 2:
- don't expect any topic reply notification to reach you.
- don't expect any email about private messages sent to you.
- don't change your email, since you won't be able to validate it.
- don't use "I forgot my password" thing.
This is valid until the Exim returns online. This problem is also happening at Revora Forums, Strategy-X Forums, CnC Reloaded and CnC Reneclips forums, although in some of them you don't need to validate your account through a link submitted by email. QUICK_EDIT

- INVALIDATED! PPM now uses the SMTP server for sending any kind of email . Problem is solved and you may now register again . Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.
