Hmm, server is down at the moment (which is very rare), but I don't know if that's related to your problem.

[eternaloptimist]

no, ive been tring for 3 days

[PhilD]

Did you use any characters that might not be recognised, or that might get lost over the net?

Or, are you sure your account name isn't too long?

[eternaloptimist]

PhilD

are you telling me that there is no validation on the account name length plus they will send out a false confirmation ?

grrrrrr

my user name is 15 characters, all alpha

[PhilD]

I'm not telling you anything definite, just that it might be an unknown bug. Your account name is rather long.

Hope to see you in the lobby...

I may be dumb about this but I have so many user names and log ons and passwords that I decided long ago to slim it down to just one of each.

Everywhere I go I am eternally optimistic

So expect to meet eternaloptimist in the lobby and you can teach me a thing or two about LOL.

Hey there,

I just saw this message. We'll look into this today and figure out what the problem is, and post here when we know more.

Sorry for the trouble!
