I have been contacted by both [๖ۜShooter] UKNooB (GER) and Derp about them having problems when they try creating an account here. I quite don't remember what you had do exactly do to register but they both say it's something wrong with the activation part.
Derp had a Yahoo email account so he tried with Google and it still don't work.

Yes, emails to Yahoo addresses sometimes take time. Yahoo's mail servers have some ridiculous measures in place to prevent spam from "new" domains (and SRRP.us is still considered "new" by them). Messages will get thrown into a queue for a random amount of time. They do get through eventually.

As per Google mail, Derp signed up under the name Derping with a Gmail address today at 12:08:57 EST, and the activation email was accepted by Gmail's servers at 12:09:58. Another signup under the name MasterDerp (sent to a different Gmail address) happened at 12:13:41 today with the activation email successfully sent at 12:13:45.
