I've re-enabled board registration requiring an email to be sent to the email address used when signing up, and clicking on a link in that. Previously, some of these emails seemed to never be sent. If there are problems like this again, please ping me via email. That email is on the bottom of the latest 1.3 public beta page, which any human (not bot) should be able to find relatively quickly/easily.
Also, this means that you should sign up w/ a real email address. Or, it'll be lost.
