    We're currently having issues getting the confirmation email delivered to Microsoft email addresses (hotmail.com, msn.com, live.com, outlook.com, etc). It's some kind of annoying cryptic filtering on Microsoft's end.

    We're working with them to resolve this and they say they have made a change and hopefully soon you will be able to receive the email.

    ETA: We have reports that some people are now getting the email, but usually in their spam folder. So please check your spam folder first.

    In the meantime I am manually confirming these accounts as I see them come in.

    In any case, if you don't have a Microsoft email address and still don't receive the confirmation email, feel free to use the Contact Us link at the bottom of every page to let me know.

    If you sign up through Tapatalk and you're a confirmed user there, you will not receive an email as you're automatically activated without any email necessary.

    I signed up through tapatalk, never got a confirmation email. I use google mail, do I need to log out and log in again?

    I never got a confirmation email but I'm guessing you approved me because the message isn't showing up anymore

    For what it's worth, it worked fine for me (hi, guys!) using a Hotmail address, though I did have to dig the confirmation email out of my spam folder.

    I am unable to confirm: I get the email but link in the email doesn't work. It seems setup for vegasboards.net domain, not vegasboards.com
