If they it are, communicate with The Administration to make sure that has not been excluído. Also it is possible that the forum is formed badly by his proprietor and/or has mistakes in the programming, for what he would need to be repaired.

Nevertheless, to be registered him will lead to additional contents and/or advantages that like invited user notdifrutaría, like having his personalized image (incarnation), private messages, subscription to user groups, etc. it will only take a few seconds. It is very advisable.

Some forums arrange that the accounts must be activated, be already for yourself or for The Administration, before it could identify you; this information will be offered to him on having finished the record process. If an e-mail was sent to him, continue the instructions. If it did not receive any e-mail, of course the e-mail address that it provided is not correct or perhaps it has been captured by a spam filter. If he is sure that the direction of e-mail that proporcinó is correct, sends a message to The Administration.
It does a time I registered: but now I cannot get connected!
Verify the message that is sent to him on having registered, verify his user's name and password and try it again. It is possible that the administration has deactivated or erased his account for some reason.
