I tried to register on forum.ripple.com a week ago but the admin has to approve all registrations and hasn't approved mine. xrptalk.org isn't accepting new registrations at all. I tried #ripple on IRC and received no response whatsoever. Does dev support exist for this protocol?
My apologies for your trouble registering on the forum. We currently are experiencing a backlog of requests from users due to the identity verification program going on and the XRP giveaway. Please send and email to
support@ripple.com with the subject of "ATTN: FORUM APPROVAL" (all caps - so it stands out and I can catch it quickly) and I will approve you as soon as possible. Be sure to include the name you registered on the forum as.
Thanks for your patience.
