    Solved Username taken glitch?

    Post by Yous000 May 16th 2013, 10:55 pm

    username taken - Username taken glitch? 130513175633

    In this picture it shows two separate attempts to create accounts. The little white section shows the names of all of the accounts registered on my forum. Obviously those two names are not taken. This glitch does not happen every time but it is happening a decent amount of times. I am currently using phpBB2 with the Extreme Dark Red Theme.

    I don't understand why this is happening. All help is greatly appreciated Wink

    Try it with another browser, some browsers reject signups if you have some falsy browser configurations.
