Default VB License Integration Glitch

Wasn't sure if this belonged here or in VB 3 glitch forum. But since this was basically a forum addon I chose here so if it's in the wrong forum I apologize to the mods.

After the upgrade to VB 3.0 Beta 2 the License Integration Script was installed which verifies emails. Most people did it with ease. However I found that myself was having extremely bad problems under the "TheMayhem" username and asked filburt at Vb.org and he suggested just resubmitting the form at Vbulletin.com where you enter the 3 email addresses. After a few hours of attempts and resubmitting, changing emails, ect. I came to the conclusion that it just wasn't going to work for me under the username I was doing. Then I noticed a few other people saying they were experiance similar problems.

So about an hour ago I decided to log out of my username and change my email address. Then to reregister using the email address I was trying to use for my TheMayhem username. I reregistered and then verified my account. Then I went to vb.com where my email was already in place on what it was supposed to be and resubmitted the form so it'd update the systems. I came back here and suddenly I finally had access.

So with this in mind is it possible that some user accounts could be experiancing some kind of glitch that for some odd reason if they registered before the upgrade and only a handfull of accounts weren't able to verify there accounts resulting from some type of glitch? I sent a small request to Saintdog via pm to notify him. But, I wanted to ask the general posters/mods if anyone else experianced from this problem or if anyone knows if this was just a one time deal that I unfortunitely experianced or if others are in fact experiancing it?

Best Reguards

Some people have had trouble licensing their accounts here, but it's from already common problems like not entering the correct e-mail and now knowing it's case sensitive.

As for your TheMayhem account, try getting in contact with vB.com maybe? If none of the problems I've suggested work they might tell you otherwise whats wrong etc. or it could be a glitch like you said. But everything seems stable at the moment.

Contacting vBulletin would be your best bet but trying working with the user first, if it does not license up, then revert to the first.

I had the same exact problem. I am sure I did everything correctly, but I had to re-register to see the threads here. I'm sure others are having the same problems.

Can you give a step-by-step way of reproducing the problem? Is it...?
1. Have an account here before license checking took place
2. System integrated
3. Tried to authenticate and couldn't

I tried everything. I realized we had to verify at vb.org, so i made sure my emails matched EXACTLY on both the VB.org verification page (the link you've been giving out). They did. I then thought since I was using a FREE email (hotmail) that maybe that was the prob, so i switched my email at both places, then re-verified from my email that VBT sent to my new email addy I provided.

Still nothing. As soon as I re-registered with that same email, everything popped up as it should have with my old username.

My previous username was 'lordofgun', BTW.

You never re-verified your e-mail address (the *@hotmail one). You're in the wrong usergroup as a result.
