Gunboards.com registration activation question

I signed up for an account to be able to post some questions over there at the suggestion of a member here. It’s been about two days since I’ve signed up and I still haven’t received approval to post. Anyone have any experience using that site and why it might take so long to be approved?

Gun boards sucks … oh sorry , that wasn't the question.
Anyhow I have seen this before.
Should it not happen I suppose the other member could contact Vic for you ….. if not , let me know and I will

Thanks. I’ll give it a little more time just in case. I have some Enfield questions. Posted here but the suggestion was to go to the Enfield board there.

They do have some specialized knowledge over there.
And some other "stuff"
I can recall folks complaining about your issue in the past.
I think some things slip over there sometimes..
So nothing new I assume , I spend precious little time there but have an account if you want me to try and contact someone.

It seems to take a few days, weeks at times, to receive approval for forums. Two days isn't very long to wait. Give it at least a week. There are some knowledgeable Enfield collectors in the forum. I'd suggest some Facebook groups, but you have to know who is knowledgeable, and who isn't. Being new, it would be tough to figure out.

Yeah, I just had some questions about markings I couldn’t find through regular searching. I don’t plan on using the site often other than for that. I’ll try to be patient but it’s a little annoying. I don’t expect a moderator to be available 24/7 but if you have it set up where new members can’t post until you approve them I’d like to think some would check more often than weekly or biweekly. Oh well.
