How do I get my account to work?

Post by Nate879 »

I just registered an account on forum.osdev.org. The wiki told me I had to, to be able to edit. But when I try to log in, I get the message "Login error: You are not a member of the required phpBB group.". I haven't gotten any confirmation emails. Was I supposed to? If not, how do I get the account working?

You already requested joining the selected group.

It takes some time before you "actually" become a member of the group.

But i think you have wiki rights even if it's "pending". I know for me was so...
