    Default Email Verification = Fail.

    18 users registered, 17 unverified have been on the site. Do the math :S
    Kinda like this every day...
    People often complaining about not getting the email, and some are just noobs... Anyway, keeping a lot of people out :/

    im guessing that it's a lot of people who put bogus emails, coupled with a few who are too stupid to realize what a validation email is, and then a few who genuinely don't get the email.

    According to my calculations...
    17/18 = about .94
    .94 x 100 = 94
    94 x % = 94%

    94% of the new members are unverified.

    Hm, lets see.
    If 1+1=2, and email verification sucks, remove email verification.

    well, so far, most of the people i've seen asking about verification emails have also been asking about things like "who knows an admin i want the admin codes for MOHH2" or something like that. i wouldn't say we're missing much.
