Changes for AOL MC Members

Not necessarily. One could think of a "whole week" as just a period from Monday to Friday rather than the length of seven days including the weekend.

Okay.

Hi... Another thing to note, and I'm not entirely 100% sure on this, but I believe that if a member still gets the "Awaiting email confirmation" status for a whole week or 7 days without confirming/activating their account, the member in question's account is automatically deleted from the system without malice on part of anyone associated with the forums. So, as you can see, it behoves members to either confirm or update their accounts' email contact address.

Just to clarify how things are set up currently, a user who is in the "awaiting e-mail confirmation" group AND has zero posts will be automatically deleted after 10 days if the account is not confirmed via e-mail. This helps us clear out unconfirmed accounts in the system.

If you change your e-mail (or have an AOL address) and you have at least 1 post you'll remain in the "awaiting e-mail confirmation" group indefinitely (with limited forum access) until your e-mail address is confirmed via e-mail. When your e-mail address is updated you'll be back in the registered group as before.

As always, we're here to help if you need assistance your account.

Ah... The mystery is solved. Thanks for the added info Phil.
