The new boards would not let me register. It kept telling me to put in a user name without any spaces, and all I was typing in was my name; glenn

Does anybody have any helpful hints on how to make this new registration work?

It kept doing that to me too, then all of a sudden let me post anyway, without ever resolving the question.
Have you tried to post a reply despite its insistence that you need to do what you've already done?

I tried what you said, but it didn't work for me, unless I'm missing a step somewhere along the way. I mean, is there a way to post a reply directly from the registration page? I'm going back to the board and trying to do it from there. Regardless, I do appreciate your help.

You have to have cokies enabled too. I couldn't do anything until I turned them on. That pisses me off, because I was able to get by without them on this board just fine.

What I did, actually, was to give up on registering after it told me for about the fourth time that I needed a name with no spaces, and just went back to the boards to read messages--and it pitched me into a response window as if everything had been fine all along.

Yeah, it kept saying I needed a name with no spaces so after awhile I got frustrated and just kept typing in random superhero names just for the hell of it. Suddenly it worked and I'm now metamorpho. Good thing I like the guy, I could've ended up being moon knight or something from all the random names I was going through!
