Problem joining a forum
« on: November 17, 2011, 04:10:38 PM »
I am joining a forum about a video game and this is my problem making an account: I enter my birth date, then it says they are "Unable to register account at this time."

It means you're too young.
My recommendation is to go outside and do something productive until you are older.

Or the forum is not accepting new members. Which is probably a blessing in disguise.

Either
1) You're too young.
or
2) They've quickly ran a check and found out who you are.

Well it said you must be born between the years 1902-2011.

Presumably you have to be something like 13 to sign up. A lot of forums have that to prevent immature, irrational, whiny kids signing up and turning the place into a heckhole.
