Cannot create FAF account

Postby Firevessel » 20 Nov 2012, 07:16

Whenever I press create account and type in my desired username, password and email, it says that "sorry, this login is not available, or the email address was already used..." This cannot be true since I have just tried spamming random usernames and it still says the same message. Please help since I would really like to play on your servers. :)

When I went to register for the FA Forever lobby I misspelled my email and If I try to login with the username and password it tells me to re-create my account how can I do this?

You don't have to pay or anything to register on FAF so just use a different email and create a new account?

And please don't revive a topic from 2012 again xD

On another note, welcome to FAF!

Maybe try a different username? As you said you created a new email it must be the username already being used or something...
