Welcome to the new site everyone. As penance for my embarrassing triple posting earlier, I have been asked by the admins to post a link to our lovely bug tracker, which can be found at http://sylnt.us/bugs. If you notice any odd behavior around the site, please don't hesitate to submit a notice. Thank you, everyone.

It's rather simple. When you create an account, it sends a hashed link to verify the email address. Bog standard verification process for the last two decades. You click the link and have to put in your username/password. I do that, it doesn't work.

You appear to already be logged in? My email link was just the SN login page with the password embedded in the URL. There was no verification other than them pre-generating a password and emailing it. That link will probably auto-login and let you change the password to something else.

Also, a suggestion: how about loosening or removing the "it's been X minutes since you last successfully posted a comment" for logged in users while there's only a few hundred of us?

I'm talking about on the bug tracker.
