What email account are you trying to use on activation?

I'm pretty sure they won't allow Hotmail accounts etc, due to the risk of spamming on the site.

You might have to try using your work or home email accounts.

Im using a proper email account and it was accepted, just never sends me the activation email, whenever i try to enter it says, "your account isnt activated" them when i try to make another account it says "the email is already registered"

Ive tried resending the activation email and it says its been sent, Its all correct, i just never recieve it.

dr503762721
rotaryjapan

going on with his usual spam and other crap.


and

mazdarx4luce

and again?

mazdarx2347
you have posted umpteen different threads,, across at least 3 international forums
all regards to what is needed to manualise a rx4 TD,, whats required to fit a 13bt into an rx4 TD,, whats required to fit a 12a turbo into an rx4 TD,, what clutch components from sa22c swap to rx4 TD


and so on,, AD NAUSEUM


there is so much posted everywhere,,in just a few days,, many consider it spam,, and offensive that you continue to ask question that clearly have been answered multiple times to you,, and about a million more times to others,, if you bother to use the search functions

you are wasting bandwidth,, you are posting the same questions under multiple user accounts
your posts are sig linked to a trader sales page and thus constitutes spam
this alone is considered a breach under terms and conditions of many web sites


people have tried to help you,, and you have pissed them off by not listening!

if you have an issue with ausrotary, take it up with the admin of that site in email
do not do it here

any further threads / posts of yours that are intended to antagonise a response will be dealt with harshly


in answer to your "which is spam"
as user kagoshima you was banned a long time ago
-- by that admin ---
and you have returned under multiple user names
your spam has long been deleted

if you continue to be a nuisance in this forum you will be dealt with in a similar manner

this thread is about ausrotary activation issues
you do not have one
you have a de-activation issue ,, and this is not the place for it

1 : use complying email service provider,, or potentially forever write off your favourite user name
2: if you have already FKD up , use a complying email and another user name
3: when you are finally activated , put in request for name change back to your favourite if possible
4: don't bother me with your problem,, i am not aus rotary admin
- previously when i have put in these requests to that admin to sort you lot out i have been totally ignored,, and not even a message reply
when i have posted these requests into the admin section of the board they have been left unanswered
in view of the apathy shown consistently at that end,, i no longer bother trying to sort out these issues

ausrotary admin are welcomed to respond here

"Frequently Asked Questions about the Forum"

* My Account Has Mysteriously Stopped Working

* Have you recently changed your email address in your user profile?

If so, as a security precaution, the forum software automatically forwards an email containing a validation link to your email account. Please check your email account and junk mail folder, open it, and click on the validation link.

If you entered a false address, you will obviously not receive the link. In that case, you will need to contact an Administrator and supply a working email address. We will then modify your account settings and you must manually open your account by clicking the supplied validation link. This is done for security reasons.

* Have you done anything that might prompt the Administrators to disable or close your account?

If you have received warnings in the past or have done something on the forum that would warrant immediate banning, then you may have been banned. This is a privately owned forum and public access is granted conditionally only upon acceptance of the Terms of Use and rules of the forum. We reserve the right to revoke access to your user account and this website. Although we will usually provide the courtesy of providing an explanation for banning, we reserve the right to revoke access without explanation.

Having your account banned means you have repudiated the Terms of Use of the website and are no longer authorised to sign up as a member or to access the website. Unless we have placed conditions on a ban, banning is permanent and reinstatement of membership will only be allowed in exceptional circumstances and only at the discretion of the Administrators.

* None of the above?

Please contact the Administrators of the forum - steyr@ausrotary.com

* I have forgotten my password

Don't panic! While your password cannot be retrieved it can be reset. To do this go to the login page and click I've forgotten my password. Follow the instructions and you should be back online in no time.

* I try to register for membership, but it says that my email address is invalid, even though I know it is a working account.

To help eliminate spam-bots, malicious users and postwhores, we do not allow email addresses from free email account services such as ninemsn, hotmail, gmail, yahoo etc etc. Free email accounts are difficult to trace and because trading happens on this forum, users must have an identifiable email account.

If you have access to the Internet, you must have at least an ISP, student, or work based email account, so we suggest you use that. If that is not the account you regularly use, you can add an MSN or yahoo email address to your user profile under MSN messenger or Yahoo messenger.

* I attempted to register for membership but my account does not work.

If so, as a security precaution, the forum software automatically forwards an email containing a validation link to your email account. Please check your email account and junk mail folder, open it, and click on the validation link.

If you entered a false address, you will obviously not receive the link. In that case, you will need to contact an Administrator and supply a working email address. We will then modify your account settings and you must manually open your account by clicking the supplied validation link. This is done for security reasons.

* The time displayed on the forum is incorrect.

You should change your profile setting for the timezone to match your particular area. For example, members using Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST), eg Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne etc must set the time zone to GMT + 10 hours in your user profile. On Windows PCs, you can check your timezone under Control Panel > Date & Time > Time Zone.

If you are sure you have set the timezone correctly and the time is still different, the most likely answer is daylight savings time. The board is not designed to handle the changeovers between standard and daylight time so during summer months the time may be an hour different from the real local time. The issue becomes further complicated because different Austalian states use different daylight savings hours.

This is an ongoing issue and if you are aware of a fix, please contact the Administrators.

* I want to change my username

For obvious reasons, the software does not allow users to change their own username. If you want to change your username, please contact an Administrator. Moderators are unable to change usernames. Administrators may change your username subject to availability and on the condition that other forum users' are made aware of the change (eg notify in your trader feedback thread).

* Who do I contact if I have a problem?

If you have a problem, your problem can be dealt with more expeditiously if you contact the appropriate Administrator or Moderator - always try to contact someone who is currently online. Alternatively, some problems can be dealt with immediately by posting in the Site Discussion or Newbie Lounge forum.

Browse or post in the Newbie Lounge if:
* You don't know how to use a forum feature;
* You don't know how to post pictures or set up an avatar;
* You don't know where to find information you are looking for;
* You don't know where you should be posting a topic.

Browse or post in the Site Discussion section if:
* You have a problem with your account or the forum and you want a quick answer to your problem. Check this FAQ and posts made by other users in this section;
* You want to make a suggestion to improve the forum.

Contact a MODERATOR for the following:
* To report a thread which requires locking or deleting because it breaches the rules;
* To report posts which require editing or deleting because they breach the rules;
* To report abuses of private messaging;
* To report abuses of the forum by other users;
* To report bad trades (although depending on severity, posting in trader feedback is better);
* To have a post or thread you made in mistake edited or deleted.

Contact an ADMINISTRATOR for the following:
* To report problems with your account that cannot otherwise be resolved by reference to this FAQ or the Site Discussion section;
* To have your username changed;
* To report abuses of avatars or signature pictures (only admin can remove);
* To report major abuse of the forum by a user which requires immediate action or banning;
* To report criminal activity on the forum.

The Administrators are: Adsy01, KYPREO, Steyr
The Moderators are: GTLimited, MrGenius, S2 13BT, Saru, Shinjuku, tassie_seven.

Please respect that this is something we do in our free time and that we like to be regular users too. So, PMs with issues that are trivial or could otherwise be solved if you looked into this section may frustrate.
