Still no idea if anything has been taken from my account. Still no replys from mods re: "awaiting clearance", still no emails from anyone connected with payment. I think I'll wait until there's a commerce system that works or DVD available. What can I say, a really bad experience that doesn't even get off the ground. Uninstalled. Will lurk, but that's me out for the time being.
PM Gjon Camaj, give him the email addy you tried to use to register, and explain your situation. He can get it sorted out--might take him a little bit to get to you. He's got a few folks to sort through already... Hang tight and thanks for you patience
Gjon contacted. Will doubtless join when my father is out of hospital and the payment system is working properly, but for now, it's goodbye.
