    I just folded. I've been waiting for my account to be sent back to me via new e-mail but I've had enough. I can't knock the guys trying to get through the backlog. Well done to them.
    I thought I could just wait. I did a pretty good job too. But then, I have asinine things to say. Films I've seen I want to critique. Mass Effect 2 came out. I can't talk to internet people about that now? Random drunken posts (like this), where are ye when needed? It's a serious pain to browse without an account. Where's the triumph of saying HA! when you pop into a topic and just the right moment to say something that's actually pertinent to the topic?
    I had 1000+ posts but hey, 1st post! Woot Woot

    Apologies if this has been said. I'm sayin' it again. Now that I have an account again I find myself with nothing I want to do on this forum. Back to Mass Effect and trying to score with Jack. :pac:

    They're merging new accounts when old ones are recovered you could and should have set up an account sooner silly :o

    But I thought 'guests' could post?* Why didn't you just do that while you were waiting?

    *I could be very wrong:D

    Basically yes. It says it in the charter. Anything said on AH can be viewed by the WHOLE world. They just can't comment unless they're registered. So they're our guests :D

    I'd give some thanks but I ****ing can't. I like the 'And you are?' post. It reeks of a kind of backward mentality common everywhere. Barack Obama by the way. Superman though, when I'm not being president.
    I'll have to give the guys another e-mail asking them to merge I guess.

    What I meant was that I think it's better to be able to post, thank and all that instead of just viewing. Not that I'm concerned that people are viewing!
    But then again, I was a guest briefly before I joined in the fun:D

    Start a thread in the Help Desk.
    One of the admins will be along in the next while.

    Your accounts will be merged.
