Registration pain

Hello,

I eventually managed to register to EmailDiscussions. The site has been rejecting me as a spammer since yesterday and telling me to send a message from the "contact us" page. There is no "contact us" page I could find.

And I found out what the problem was: the site didn't like my desired user name "Vincent". Maybe this user name is already in use but the error message should not be "you are a spammer".

This has been frustrating. Thank you anyway,

Vincent

Can't help you with the registration process, that's Edwin's domain, but there was a user "Vincent" that was banned ...

I am glad to see you got things straightened away

Thank you for your feedback. It was just to make sure you be aware of the process.

Actually, "hitler" isn't OK either; that one was also banned. And since that was one of my usernames, I have vaguely wondered why; perhaps somebody else tried to log in under that name, prompting the ban because Edwin knew it wasn't me?

Does that mean it was OK when you had it?
