I was recentlly invited to join the WA the telegram told me that I would recieve an email shortly but I have not recieved that email, and I tried re applying the same thing has happened.

It takes about a day to be accepted into the WA...If that's what your asking

If that isn't the case, did you check your Junk Mail folder?

Check your Junk folder.

I checked everything no email yet.

I'm having the exact same problem.

oh for a minute there I thought I was the only one with the problem. hope it gets fixed soon.

We're not having a problem. It's your email provider dumping our mail into your spam or junk folders. Nations are joining the WA left and right as we speak.

* 5 minutes ago: The United States of Endeavoursia applied for WA membership.
* 6 minutes ago: The Rogue Nation of Jurganotia was admitted to the WA.
* 6 minutes ago: The Free Land of Giving peas a chance applied for WA membership.
* 7 minutes ago: The Jingoistic States of Keylogger was admitted to the WA.

It takes up to 24 hours for the WA mail to arrive, but it won't be much more than that even in the worst of situations.

There are two things that can prevent your membership:
listing an incorrect email
having our mail go into spamIf your email address is correct, it's the other one.

I checked my spam folder but I understand, is there a way to change emails so I can re apply.

EDIT: I know that my email is correct because I recieved the verification email for the forum.

I have the same problem. I apply for WA membership, I receive the telegram, I wait several WEEKS, and NO EMAIL! I check the spam email folders on the Email Proider's website and on my desktop email client. NOTHING! I make sure the email address is correct, and IT IS CORRECT! I go through the process AGAIN AND AGAIN, but it NEVER WORKS RIGHT! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

I use yahoo maybe that is part of the problem

I use yahoo maybe that is part of the problem

Well, I don't use Yahoo or Hotmail or Gmail or any of the other big ones. I use a different one.

I think I am about to apply with another email.

EDIT: it worked now thanks all I needed to do was change emails.

I've applied twice in the last three days, and received the acceptance telegram twice. Still no Email. My service never prevents "junk" from reaching me (my obscure address doesn't get actual spam) and I got the validation message just fine.
...My service is hosted by Yahoo too, so I'll go change.

It should come eventually, if it doesn't that it has to be your email. Maybe you can try an external mail program :)

I changed the address to a webmail account of mine and reapplied. It worked, and now I'm a WA member. Bizarre.

What type of mail did you use? The good news is that it worked, congrats on that one. :)
