I'll check with Adam and Aric why this wasn't fixed already, should have been done a couple months ago.
Check your spam folder.
Yeah, yeah. Typical response: 'the problem is on your end'. Dude, about 14,254 people had the same issue for months - now you want to blame me for not knowing how to use a spam folder. Maybe the issue is on the server? Did you consider that? Duh!
Let's face it - the Mastercoin forum is totally mismanaged and as a result nobody will visit. The posts are quickly stale and the conversations are totally dead. New participants are blocked from joining - in the name of 'security'. We wouldn't want any hackers to spread bad opinions - we need top security with e-mail background checks and high level encrypted passwords. You've locked the thing down so tight - nobody will join. Good one.
I just tried registering another account there. It's been about a minute and I haven't gotten any confirmation email. I'll update us in the case it comes through.
edit:I got an email at the time of this post [X:49] in my "junk" folder. Using Gmail.
Yep. That is the same thing you guys said the last 15 times people complained of this.
Nevertheless, the MasterProtocol forum is grossly mismanaged and as a result is mostly dead. It totally destroys the budding interest of newly arriving talent trying to learn more when they hit the dead end that is the Masterprotocol Forum. So they go over to work on NXT where they find a thriving community and clean looking interfaces. I predict this will be the ultimate undoing of MasterProtocol. Talented people won't continue to jump on the train.
Indeed an important exodus has already taken place. Tachihoma is working for NXT; Buterin is working for Ethereum; Graz/Grimentz is doing their own clone of MSCProto; among others. Couple this with the high barrier to entry and MSC is begging to get shuffled over to the crypto whey side.
