When ever I try to post an add, having already registered I get this error message:

"Your profile is not active at this time. You will receive an email with instructions on activating your profile shortly. You may not use this feature until your profile has been activated."

But I never seem to recieve the email? Have I done something wrong?

Is you email one of those odd ones that either gets redirected or looks like one thing but is another being aliased out (like Saab@turbonutter.com which is really sr0031970-003@freeola.net). These never seem to make it through for me.

I always have to use a 'real' email address.

Andrew its a "normal" aol email address.
Is there still a problem with aol and Saabscene?
I could try another email address, from another ISP, if you like?

Or just use the new "Classified" Forum in the Car Park.

This has just appeared - it is being tested for a trial period - have a look for yourself.

Thanks Kev...............hmm nice colour!! http://www.saabscene.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif

It's a really terrible colour scheme - but it is there to remind you that non-commercial posts are permitted in this area. Where the board is blue advertising is not permitted. Also, no linking from the board to the classifieds, keep all the classifieds in the yukky colour scheme area http://www.saabscene.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Commercial / non commercial, me is confused [/b][/quote]Commercial - Company or trader flogging cars, parts etc on a commercial basis (e.g sump plugs for sale, only loads left)

Non Commercial - Saab owner with a few left over bits and bobs looking to clear some space.

Thanks Guys, another "Blonde in Essex" moment there! http://www.saabscene.com/forum/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

Chris, just to mention that if you want to use the 'old' Classifieds section, you need to register again for it. Your username for the Forums won't work - the two sections use separate user data.
