Activation link for what? The forum? as you appear to have registered fine there.
Austria is just like Yorkshire, but they have bigger hills.... oh and they have real snow too

try one of these buttons:

MMB
Ctrl + LMB
Scroll Lock


(when hovering over that link with your pointer)

I don't know what activation you are talking about btw, might want to give us some more details (why is it not working, what is the link for, etc.)

Parsing the URL in my head, we come across this:

Code: [Select]
?82dee3c91d52261fc51ab163b8f
I'm ignoring the comma at the end because it doesn't matter if it's there or not.

Here's the problem - we're telling the home page about a variable, but we aren't defining it.

Of course, since there IS no activation for anything other than maybe the forum, I smell some robotic components.

Green = listening, red = surfing

The link might even point out which of the people in this forum aren't real humans. Then we could compare notes.

The comma is post URL, so discounted.

Here's the problem - we're telling the home page about a variable, but we aren't defining it.

There are cases where you could just use the URL to set variables without giving them a value.

Though taking the hexadecimal number 82dee3c91d52261fc51ab163b8f
and converting to decimal, we get 1.65898275 × 1032
or taking it as a hex-encoded ASCII string we get some string that can't be pasted as it contains formatting characters.

And then the OP goes on to spam. For shame.

Locked, because there obviously isn't a problem if he's spamming.

I wonder if he did put a grenade under his PC or not... That'd have been pretty hilarious...
