Can't make new forum after deleting last forum
Hi I just deleted my old forum and verified the action in my email. Now I want to make a new forum at this link https://www.forumotion.com/create-forum/make-free-message-board/phpbb3
it says "Sorry, it looks like e-mail removed belongs to an existing account."

Hello marcusx00,
Your old e-mail is registered in case you want to ever restore your old forum via the utilities : https://www.forumotion.com/utils
As far as I know, you'll have to use a different e-mail. Also, never post e-mails on a public forum, I removed it for your security.

It will take some time (up to a year) before that email address becomes available to create another forum.

Hello marcusx00,
Although you cannot use your email to create the forum, you can always create a new email and then switch the emails over after the forum is created. Beware though, in the event you need to backup or restore your forum, you will need to remember the email you used to create the forum, as well as the original password used to create the forum. But as I said, it is easy to get around this issue but if you don't wish to make a new email, you will have to wait until either the email is available or you will have to restore your forum and get the old one back.
Hope this provides some more ideas and a clearer understanding for you.
