Sign up updated posted by: y2klizard
ADDED: Good News! It seems the sudden registration is causing a lot of trouble for most of you. And some couldn't login w/ the default login i've provided below. So Baka-Updates enables all the bt back for now and we will decided whether to continue this in a week's time or not. We would like to hear from you and make a more favourable decision, please voice your opinion.
I see many visitors still can't get the sign up ready. So I've created a default login for the public who is desperately in need.

Please do not alter any login information for this account so everyone can use it at the moment. This account will expire in 1 week's time, this will give you plenty of time to get the sign up done.

Sign Up posted by: y2klizard
As of today, all BT's are disable for unregistered user, so please sign up. It's only a 3 minutes process. Here is an advice, if you don't receive a email from baka-updates:
1) you mispelled your email i.e. missing the .com or .net from the email address.
2) your email client treats the email as junk mail, it's probably on your junk mail folder.
If these still doesn't help, you can go to our forum and post your problem on the technical problem section or email one of the Baka-Updates staffs.
By any chance for those who couldn't reach the sign up page here is the link to it:
http://www.baka-updates.com/public_access.php?act=signup
Hope the sign up goes successfull for all of you.
Good news, I've altered the script, as of now anyone who signed up will receive the email hopefully. Since there are many unsuccessful attempts on the sign up procedure, I will clear up the queue so anyone who didn't received the confirmation mail can re-register with their previous sign up info.
Sorry for all the inconvenience. :)
Stay tune, for more updated information and guidelines to help you with registration.

You are entitle to your own opinions, but if we see any misuage, your message may be deleted or you may be ban without notice.

Fansite submission posted by: Platinum|Star
The "http://" is coded in the system for the url field of fansite submission form so please leave that out or it will not work when somebody click on the link. Also, make sure you double check that your link works after submission. Remember, we are only listing anime or manga related sites at the moment.
Any technical support regarding the site should be directed to one of the ops in our IRC channel. We will be able to offer more effective help that way.
Note from y2klizard: "We have changed the color of the text which may seem more readable, please let us know if this change is effective."
Common problems experienced by users so far are those using firefox and mac can't display the text properly. To fix this, all you have to do is refresh the page. If that doesn't work, then make sure you clear your cache. This version of Baka-Updates is made to support all the major browsers so it should work for you if you try those two methods.
