unable to receive WA email.

Postby Not gwaca » Wed May 28, 2014 4:57 am

I've applied for WA membership several times now and have yet to receive an email. I've checked my inbox, and my spam folder, I've also triple checked that my email is correct. What should i do to fix this?

Not sure what to say, I guess just wait for a more experienced NS player to help fix your problem.

That might be the problem,NS was designed with pc browser in mind,not tablets,so odd things may occur
Could you attempt to do it from a pc?

This is pretty bad advice since
A) there is a mobile version if the site
B) the actual sending of the mail is done serverside so it is not dependant on your browser or device at all...


Have you checked your spam folder?

This is pretty bad advice

Just wanted to officially confirm that the bolded portion is in fact entirely false and is really bad advice. Port Blood, please don't attempt to answer questions by simply pulling random answers from nowhere. If you don't actually know the answers, shut up and don't guess.

Not gwaca, you have at least one other Gmail address listed. Try a different email address. We generally do not have problems with Gmail accounts. They usually don't even go to spam.

I can see the GMail server accepting the email, both under your new address and the old one, so it must be there somewhere. They never accept email but silently delete it.

"might" ergo not 100% sure,sure I'm guessing but I try to help,and keep in mind I requested basic info like browser,email provider and OS so thats already clear and known
My guess was that the button wasn't working - which isn't that far-fetched
No,I don't speak for TBR,TBH,your mom,moderation or any other person/organization,just saying before anyone thinks that

And you do know whats going on without knowing the email provider.browser and OS? i do know plenty off things regarding IT but wasn't aware off the info violet gave - i couldnt have know because its saved on the server which i can't access

My point is, I was helping with what I knew (which was decently enough with the info given,my guess was that the button itself wasnt working on a tablet,I've had to deal with non-pc browsers for a while and they were horrible) - no need to put me down,no harm done,it's not like i told him to delete system32 on his pc...

Plus,I'm not aware off any "do not post" policy on technical
