I don't have access to my old college email anymore, guess I'm SOL to join for now unless I want to risk the money to buy a domain :(
By EvilChameleon Go To PostSo essentially you are paying for access to the new site. Interesting.
It's the same rule that GAF had. If you're a former GAFfer who has lost access to whatever email you used to register before, we've been discussing options in the Discord group that Knuckle Sandwich is handing out invitations for.
Props to Knuckle Sandwich on the quick turnaround, and to those in this thread who helped with the directions. I'm excited to see ResetEra, but after browsing around here a bit, I have to admit: I like it!
I'm verified in a separate GAF Discord - is there any benefit to having Kunckle Sandwich get me in the queue as well?
Isn't proof of former GAF membership enough for the first members to get onto the forum? I get why new members later should need paid e-mail, but we already went through that and have "proven" ourselves as paid-email caliber people lol. Been on GAF for 10 years myself having joined on my college e-mail back then... which I haven't accessed in like 6+ years now.
By Audioboxer Go To PostI mean I guess I could just install discord…
It's pretty easy.

No need to get verified again but you're welcome to join us.
By Forever Go To PostHello guys. I'm involved with the development of ResetEra. Out of respect for Reilo and crew I was not going to recruit here, but if you want to join I can facilitate that when the time comes.
I would like an invite too. Name is the same on GAF.
By Dark Knight Go To PostIsn't proof of former GAF membership enough for the first members to get onto the forum?Proof of GAF membership is how you got into the Discord. Being in the Discord is how they're handling the first wave of invites/registrations. That is the only way GAF membership factors into this.
By PaulLFC Go To PostNot sure if this would work, but if you register a domain name at for example Namecheap, they will offer you email addresses at that domain, which you can then forward to your actual email address. Some posters here said those didn't work for GAF though, so I don't know if they'd work for ResetEra either. If you already own a domain though, it's worth a try.
Nope don't have a domain. And creating one so it maybe works to sign up for a forum even if the community is great i don’t know..
Looking at gaf now the paid emails don’t even prevent trolls or shitheads from coming in anyway. Yes it reduces the number quite a lot but heavy restrictions on new users for a bit could also minimize the damage any troll could do before they get banned. Also keeps out a much larger number of people who would love to take part in the different communities there.
Oh well guess i will do the same as i did on gaf all these years and just read reset then.
Also this place has been great so far.
Forever: Myself, Knuckle Sandwich, and skittzo0413 are handling the verifications. PM any of us when it comes time to take the list.
By Bort Go To PostIt's pretty easy.
Yeah I've just found out. I was PM'd a link to FootyGAF and didn't know it worked on a PC. I'm in their discord now. Apparently I'm part of some discord called bye bye neogaf, fuck you evilore lol. No idea how. I guess I was invited to that even although I didn't have a discord account? Not sure how any of this works, but I appear to have an email registered account now.
I've been on gaf since 2006 but I don't have access to my old email anymore. Am I going to need to get a paid email somewhere else if I get the invite? I am vetted on one of the discord channels

How do I get the resetera invite? I’ve been a member since 2002 I think lol... so long
I definitely wouldn't mind joining as well, it just appears rather cryptic to me. Who do we message?
Likewise on the invite begging, though the email I used for GAF is dead and inaccessible. In any case, I'm looking forward to the new site. Been missing it.
If you are not already in another GAF community Discord, you can PM JershJopstin, Knuckle Sandwich, or skittzo0431 here on Slaent for an invite to our Discord group where you will find instructions for how to verify your account, which you can do even if you are banned from GAF.
The ResetEra admins will be sending out access codes to each Discord community. This will allow you to register during the initial period; however, registration will open up eventually.
You will need a paid (or university) email to join, same as GAF. It does not have to be the same email you used for GAF; there's no way for the ResetEra mods to check this anyway.

I scrambled my password on the way out of GAF and have no access to the ancient inbox, so I wager I'm out of luck here. Really should have just nuked it, haha. Don't know who sets the policy, but I can provide other conclusive proof of membership like old registration messages if you guys are willing to consider it.

No idea, but at this point I can't say I'd care too much.
By Freeofgreed Go To PostDo people not have ISPs or Work emails? Is getting a paid email that tough?
No work email, not in the ISP bill where I live.

How do those of us who are currently not in a in a community receive access? I assume there are a few of us floating around.
By Freeofgreed Go To PostDo people not have ISPs or Work emails? Is getting a paid email that tough?It is when you live in a third world country.
By Freeofgreed Go To PostDo people not have ISPs or Work emails? Is getting a paid email that tough?
I used my ISP email for the first time ever this past May when signing up for NeoGAF. I have had the internet from the save provider for over 15 years.

You can give it a shot by PMing whatever info you have one of the three people I mentioned.
By Mr. Blue Sky Go To PostDoes this matter for those who have been verified via discord?
My understanding is that the paid email requirement will apply to everyone both during the early registration period and afterwards.
By Grimsat Go To PostIt is when you live in a third world country.
Germany confirmed third world country i guess
By kmax Go To PostHow do those of us who are currently not in a in a community receive access? I assume there are a few of us floating around.
PM Jersh, Knucks, or skittzo. I wasn't in any of the community discords either but we have our own one for stragglers set up here thanks to Slaent.
By Jacob Go To PostYou can give it a shot by PMing whatever info you have one of the three people I mentioned.Damn, I seem to have made it to the verified list but am lacking in that department..

By Sanox Go To PostGermany confirmed third world country i guessIs it hard to get one there? It certainly must be easier than where I live because there is no such thing as a paid email.
The verification in discord just gets you a future invite to register. Actually registering on the site requires a non-free e-mail.
By Surface of Me Go To PostNo work email, not in the ISP bill where I live.
Do you mean like your internet is included in the rent or that your family/roomates are the one paying for it? Because if it's the later you could just sign up through that email, confirm then delete it after.
By Grimsat Go To PostIt is when you live in a third world country.
How did you get on Gaf? Where are you from?
By Mr. Blue Sky Go To PostDamn, I seem to have made it to the verified list but am lacking in that department..
We've been discussing options for cases like this in the Discord chat if you wanna drop in.
For this particular discord server I believe we're only verifying gaf users with accounts (both banned and not banned), rather than everyone. It sounds like it will be open registration not long after it launches though, so just stay tuned I guess.
*I know very little about this
*I know very little about this
I wonder how "ISP emails" are verified, like - my original GAF signup ages ago was rejected even though i used my ISP email, so i used my college email.
Just entering the domain into a browser bar would have sent them to my ISP's webpage. I mean, i can still use my college email, i'd just rather not, as i'll be using access to that one in ... february i think.

By Grimsat Go To PostIs it hard to get one there? It certainly must be easier than where I live because there is no such thing as a paid email.
I have never heard of it where i live and to this day gaf was the only place i ever came across requiring an email like that.
But i guess i stop here. Don’t wanna derail the thread when its mainly for people to stay up to date about the developments of resetera or former gaffers to get into the forum
Has there been an update as to when they'll go live? Just curious to see what the forum will be like...
By Freeofgreed Go To PostHow did you get on Gaf? Where are you from?I managed to register thanks to a friend but never got approved so I’ve been lurking for over a year, as for your second question, I’m from Iraq, probably the first one you’ve seen on the net from that place.

I pm'd Forever, shall I resend?
By Ravensmash Go To PostI pm'd Forever, shall I resend?
Yeah, send a new one. Forever came back later and clarified that we needed to pick a community rep (though we have a couple Discord mods now so that the others can eat/sleep/work/etc).
