Good idea jinxy, just logged on for the day and it's brilliant to see so many more have registered, even Rico has resurrected Warwick Hunt it seems

Again, thanks Reged.

I've tried a few times to register but keep getting this message: You have specified an incorrect or inactive username, or an invalid password. 

Anyone else with this problem?
Report duffy • October 31, 2026 4:56 AM GMT
It means you're waiting to be activated, usually only takes a little while but assuming it means Reged has to ok it and as he's now obviously getting run over a bit perhaps he's just catching up.

You could message him on here maybe, definitely don't despair, that's exactly the same all users get when they initially register before their account is finally activated.

I actually created a prototype years ago when I first thought this might go t**s up https://bfnc.forumotion.com/ (NBF - an allusion to Not The Betfair Forum)


It is Reged's site, I don't think that it was meant to be a rallying cry when he posted but it was seized upon, I hope that he is comfortable, but for a site that we are told is a shadow of its former self there has been some response to its impending demise, into the 90's now registered there in just a few days.

Could be an issue there. I just opened the page up. I was logged out and after signing in got ‘wrong username or password’  message. Both are saved so definitely not wrong. Teething problems imo.

If this still isn't working I'd ask admin to delete the account and try again. We need to keep this going and not lose anyone in the process.

People starting to slightly query about tech issues or even 'support' - probably best to note this forum admin guy was not expecting this to happen and suddenly be swamped. It's not his professional job (I believe) so he's likely doing this forum for free.

So, give him a little bit of leeway with it all - it must have been mad for this suddenly to happen on his forum that he set up earlier.

But Reged - you are already a legend. Cool

Agreed, it is encouraging though that as he said in his initial post on here, he did set it up for this very reason and by posting it after Betfair's announcement he must be, even subconsciously, inviting us to join, even if he perhaps wasn't prepared for the stampede.Grin
