I'm working on a way to get you guys (at least Bovive and Arev), username activation status. I'm not sure how to do it, nor am I certain how possible it is, but I just wanted to let you guys know that I'm looking into it.
There are a few things to be aware of though. If I give you guys activation abilities, you'll likely get the activation request mails. This means you'll literally get well over 50 activation mails a day. It's become a habit of mine to clear my inbox at 12:00 each afternoon, and again before I go to sleep. I then go to the administrator panel, and mass-delete usernames I believe to be spam-bots (I found a mod which allows me to mass-delete them at once, rather than one by one. That saved me a A LOT of time lol).
Assuming a registered username isn't a spam-bot, there are two things to do:
1.) Activate it
2.) Immediately add the username to the Non-RID Members Usergroup (else they won't be able to post).
Once they join RID, I remove them from the Non-RID Members Usergroup, and add them to the RID Members Usergroup.

Interesting. I just assumed Apium and Mikal had the ability to register people.

Hey, when did I get replaced by Mikal???????
Actually, all Apium and I have are Mod powers. We can move, edit, lock, and delete posts/threads. That's it. I wish I had the power to mess with usernames. I would have fixed my locked user account a long time ago... But hey, it only took Lexx like 8 months to figure out how to correct the issue... lol
