    No email confirmation

    Hey there. I signed up for the beta ~6 hours ago on 3 of my emails. I got a reply with one but not the other two, anybody know why I wouldn't be getting them? I know the site is probably getting BOMBED with people trying to sign up, but what should I do? I've already signed up so it won't let me do it again and there's nowhere that says "re-send confirmation".

    Are any of you in the same boat and if so what can we do about it? Thanks.

    Gmail addresses seem to not be getting confirmation emails. Not even in the spam box.

    I put in for beta testing about 3 hours ago and haven't gotten an e-mail yet. I'm sure they're sending out batchs of them or something.

    What does the e-mail do specifically? Just say you got in? Or does it make you click something to 'confirm' that you want to test.

    Edit: since the above poster mention gmail I figured I'd edit this to mention that my e-mail is a gmail. So maybe that's my issue.

    It's just to confirm that you signed up correctly and that if you get accepted they will let you know. The fact that I didn't get an email about that, though, is what's worrying me.

    Yeah I made sure it wasn't in my spam box. My girlfriend and brother signed up AFTER I did and I still don't have it and they got theirs within 2 minutes.

    I will do my best at this waiting patiently thing, but after playing GW regularly since 2005 and anticipating GW2 since 2007 I think I've waited patiently enough lol

    Wait let me get this right. You're complaining that 1 out of your 3 emails that you used got a confirmation, be happy you got 1, i did it on 1 email when we could sign up for it, still no reply.

    the email itself just says thank you for signing up. they said on twitter that the system can take some time to get the emails out to some no worries alot of us that have gotten the mails signed up like withing the first 90 seconds after the site came up for the beta, and there for the system wasent cramped up by traffic. chill and it will come

    I know how you feel, having played GW from the start myself. I'm just saying that since I've been waiting patiently for so long, a few hours more won't really make a difference

    I'm in the same boat, but felt quite reassured when I read this:
    If you get a message saying that your email is already signed up, then all your info is in our system. ~RB
    They also said that they'll re-add a function to resend the confirmation e-mail later.

    I tell myself that every day. I'm also hoping that regardless of confirmation email, my email was registered anyway (as it says when I try to re-sign up). Hopefully without the confirmation email I'd still be notified if I got beta or not. That's my worry though: If it doesn't show up, will I know if I get into beta with that email or not?

    I got two emails. This is cause I used the resend option when it was available. Took around a half hour to get it though.

    I didn't see that. I've had my twitter and facebook open all day. Where did you see them say that they'll add that function? Not calling you out I just haven't seen it.

    >mfw people can't read properly and end up saying they received a confirmation for their beta access, which was never sent out in the first place

    People need to learn how to read, really. It confused a lot of people.

    I know many that couldn't when they should because they didn't want when they could.

    What the fuck? They're all legitimate emails used for various things. At least I'm not "that guy" that goes around making emails on hotmail, gmail, and every other mail site just to get another extra chance at beta.

    About an hour ago,
    Just be patient. If you have not received it by the end of the weekend, there will be a function whereby you can request resend. ~RB
