FP

Nate

Sorry guys, I just thought to mention about the dates that they tentatively posted. I have been a member for much longer that I deserve. I'll shoot synasp, a moderator over there a PM to see what's the deal. Sorry to get your hope up..

Ok, the list announcing registration dates is closed, but I did hit synasp with this;

"Hi! As you can probably guess, the folks over the THD are asking about the registration. The dates are set for 02.01.2009 to 15.01.2009. The folks have not been able to register, up until a few minutes ago. Is there some delay I should inform them or what?."

I hope that this delay is only becayse the new year, and that everyone that wants can join in. I will keep watch, and keep you informed, if no-one helps you first.

Have a good one, Ville

...yeah. nothing is up.

i just wish i would have changed my email before i switched ISPs

really annoying that i cant log in anymore cuz i forgot my password

Ya, I'm realy sick, yesterday I only got out of bed 3 times....One of those times was to join the RPF.

(I whatched 16 hours of TV yesterday....I was hoping the RPF could give me some relief! )

NOW, GET IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Synasp just mailed, that he was unable to switch the registration open yesterday, NOW, it should be open. All of you GET IN THERE WHILE YOU HAVE A CHANCE!!! Anyone who doesn't know what RPF is, see here; http://www.therpf.com

SWEEET! Just registered. Thanks!!

When you add ten and 5, what do you get?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Finally I am in lol

I just registered too. Can´t wait to get access. ;-)

Thanks for this thread!

Manuel

FINALLY! I just registered myself!

THX!

ME TOO!!!!!!

WOOHOO! Finally!

Does anyone know how long it takes for accounts to be activated? Just curious.

I dunno. I can ask about it. Still, it should not take much more than a day or so. Given the time of the year, there might, just might be some delays, which are quite understandable. I'll bother Synasp about this..
Cheers, I'm glad that you can finally get in there...
-Ville

It has to be done by a mod./admin, so I was just joking.

Between me and you.

Well, the joke's on you... I already PM'ed Synasp about this..

If I get banned before I'm even a member...I'm blamming...uh....uh.....The Sniffer. He's missing, and he needs to be blamed for something.

The only thing about not being activated is, I hafe to log out to search the forum, so I'm hoping once activated I'll be able to search while logged in. Either that or my sickness is throwing me off and I have no idea what I'm talking about.

Yeah, I got the same problem. Registered, but can't do anything till I'm approved.

Um... this is probably a stupid question, but what's the RPF?

RPF is an acronym of the Replica Prop Forum. It covers all movie prop related issues, and ha much information for Fettish also. If I recall correctly, the TDH was created after if became clear that the RPF forums could not handle that amount of research and discussions, but it needed it's own forum. Just go and see for yourself; http://www.therpf.com. I'd suggest that you register now, as the registration is open only for two weeks. And, BEFORE you can post in the General discussions or the Junkyard, you need to be a member for 90 days, and with post count of 20.

I registered a few times and will be selling those extra registration names on Ebay to the highest bidder once reg closes...Muuuhahahahahah! I kid of course...

ebaying RPF accounts....sad thing is that would work

I just registered, re-registered as Combat Baby since my combatbaby name is unusable due to my password/isp email problem.

At least I didn't have a high post count.

Youp, you sure do. Actions like that would get you off the board faster than light...
Synasp has not informed me about the activation times. I can only guess that they are swamped over there with the new memberships.

It could even be, if they didn't want to be bothered by dong it more than once, that they could wait for the two week registration time to be over, and activate all accounts at once. If they wanted to...ya know.

Sweet! I just registered! Thanks alot chibi!

G-Fett

Thx chibi!!! just registered!!!

A'den

Aww... I hope there's no problems? After waiting so long to get on there, I'd hate to be forgotten or dropped. I'm anxiously awaiting to contribute to the discussions.... and waiting... and waiting...

Thanks chibi fett!

thanks for the post update!

A little update from Synasp;

"For registration, be sure to check your email for the verification link. If you do not see this email, check your spam folder. Everyone is required to verify their email address when registering.
MANY of you have no confirmed your email addresses. You MUST confirm in order to activate your account. Please check your email inbox or spam folder in case it got placed there. Be sure to add therpf.com account to your "safe email" list."

May the force of registration be with you guys..

I got the email and clicked the link, but now it says I'm in the moderation queue waiting to join the forum... I can log in, but I can't post.

I think the RPF should have a special section called "guys with big egos bickering like old women". It would end up being the most posted to section. Anyway, good luck with the registration!

I signed up. Followed the link they sent me in the email and still cant do anything except sign in. I tried following the link again to activate it but the msg said "Your accound has been activated but you are currently in the moderation queue to be added to the forum."

Likewise, I also received the email, and I'm also in the moderation queue.

EDIT - To be clearer, I can log-in, but when I try to post, visit my profile,etc. I get this :

"Jodo, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation"

I'm fairly certain they just need to accept the user registrations, and that'd be it. (Nuggets are horrible, aren't they?)

yep. it could be awhile

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ..................... I WANT IN!!!! GRRRRRR!!!

Yeah, they must be swamped with new members. I have no idea just what the procedure with new membership activation is, but I trust that it WILL take some time. If there are few dozen guys here who registered, and a same amount from RPF, and other sites where the info was posted, there are more than enough work for the moderators.
Still, even though you have to wait a bit, at least the good news is, that you are on the doors, and only need to wait until they are opened.
And remember, before the 90 days are gone, you are not allowed to post on the Junkyard or General discussion forums, so your initial 20 posts that are needed mus be posted on the other forums.
Cheers guys, we will see each other in there. I just hope that you can do more over there than I have... I feel bad for you guys, I got there without problems years ago, and have not don much, while you guys have trouble getting in...
-Ville

anybody know ten + 5, my calculator doesn't have a ten?

Same as you guys......can log on but not post etc!

has anyone gotten confirmation yet!?

it's been a couple days i would think they'd start activating accounts

Nope, still not. I think they're just messing with us now.....

I just got approved! Whoopie! I'm in!

Muahahaha! Now I can spread fear and te-...I meen.....YES! I finaly made it!

Wait! Can not display this page!?! NOOOOOOOO!

Finally got my confirmation email an hour ago and made a few at-a-boy posts

I just want enough to get access to the junk yard and be able to grab cheap kits up and post progress on non star wars/boba fett projects

Still waiting.....

I'm in too! Thanks for the heads up on this.

Glad to see you guys drop in there... The wait is worth it, try to be patient, if you have not yet gotten approved. You will be, you WILL be... I am just too happy to be of assistance. Now, get in there and do more in there than I have..
Cheers, Ville

my account still hasn't been activated

got my confirmation a ew days ago
having fun already with the search function - i really need to get out more

wow 90 days and 20 posts before junkyard posting rights is allowed.
hmmmm is pming a seller direct not a done thing then on RPF?

Nate

What's the big fuzz about RPF anyways? That they are all-encompassing?

well no they are not. but it is a general prop forum with quite a large and active community - so not merely restricted to one genre or another

also with the number of people who do post there - theres lots of useful info on there, and having access to the search tool alone is great for someone new like me

Nate

I think they're approving people with real email addresses first (AOL, Qwest, Comcast, etc.), then doing the people with free email address later (Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail)...

So, if you've registered with a free email address they'll get to you later.

Bump! This is the last day to register!!! Another opportunity will not arise before Easter! If some one wants in, DO IT NOW!!!

*registers again just in case*

I registered an extra account to sell on ebay later
