Confirmation E-mails
The problem with you and others receiving forum e-mails is a by-product of all the spam sent by the nefarious people in the world. Thus legitimate e-mail is sometimes never received.
Part of my job as an Admin on the forum is to monitor all new registrations and manually finish the registration process as I see new people register because of the above problems. I do this all day long. If I'm away from my computer for any length of time at all, 10 minute to 10 hours, the first thing I do is check the Admin panel and process new accounts so that people can begin posting as I know some don't get their confirmation e-mails. In fact, I just checked the Admin panel after returning from lunch and confirmed two new members.
Even if you have not received your confirmation e-mail, because I continually confirm registrations manually throughout the day, go ahead and try to REPLY to the sign-up thread of your choice, or to a thread on the forum, chances are you'll be able to post to the forum just fine.
Just to note, last week I had an e-mail similar to yours and I sent an e-mail to the person’s two different e-mail addresses. One got through, the other didn’t, so I don’t know the cause of all these problems but I have learned that e-mail isn’t perfect and it's not always the senders fault. Different ISP's use different filter systems and until a better system is developed we'll probably always have these problems.
We apologize that the system isn't perfect but as we can make improvements we do...
