Hey my buddy Nodima cannot login and wanted me to post this message in here to get his account straightened out. Here ya go:
"I emailed you guys back on the 13th because I was worried about last week's premium content, but you guys did us all a solid with the freebies. I'm worried tonight's won't be so lucky though (ed. note: I was right!), and now I've learned I can't even make new accounts to post on the forums or PM any of you guys locally. This is regarding the account "Nodima".
I created a separate account "Knowdima" either on the 12th or 13th to make a post on the forums, which I've DEFINITELY seen work for other people (I mean, look at this thread). But every time I click my verification link from knowdima@gmail.com (another account I created JUST FOR YOU, haha) it just goes back to the GB homepage. I go to login, it says I'm not verified.
So basically, somehow your site is totally unusable to me as a Monthly subscriber, OR as a freeloader, and it's really starting to bum me out.
Mac user, Chrome generally, have tried logging in with Safari and Firefox to similar sad ends.
Huh? (Refresh, Refresh, Refresh):

This is what I was seeing during the live stream of Unprofessional Fridays...that's kind of disappointingly misleading. I refreshed the page every four or five minutes until I realized this is probably your clever wink at non-paying viewers. However, being in my position that's plenty bumming me out.

Safari:

(Yes, a blank screen)
Firefox:

(Why does Firefox think you're a security risk and the others don't? After granting giantbomb.com AND auth.giantbomb.com security clearance, I get the same blank page as Safari)
When I go to log in, these are the result pages I get in the three different browsers.
Dummy Account:

When I try the dummy account I made to try and post on the forums about this, I got stuck at the verification process. I have clicked the link in my knowdima@gmail.com folder several times over the past week, yet everytime I get kicked back to the giantbomb page I still get this message. "
Thanks in advance.
