QUOTE(mirocu @ Dec 10 2015, 02:33 PM) Still unsure if I´ll join the new site. Guess I´ll wait and see how it unfolds Anyone who´s set on joining up directly? Is the new site up? I didn't know. I just went there, and there isn't a forum to be found, it is all about advertising their new games and gear. Are they doing away with the forums?

The bethesda.net site exists now, but the "community" link takes you back to bethsoft.com. So the site's there, but not the new forums.

Signed up, too, just to make sure my username isn't taken. I wasn't happy that the same password wouldn't work. Stronger passwords are harder to remember, so not really more secure, anyway.

Some notes that may have relevance to others:
I registered from my browser at home, and tried to login from work. It accepted the name and password, but sent me an email (to my home server) with the login link for the "new browser or device". It's likely that will happen any time you clear your cookies, so make sure the email address you supply the first time isn't temporary, or you might get locked out.
User names containing spaces aren't allowed, as the space acts as a delimiter in some of the interfaces, and the name would get truncated at the space. Presumable Pseron Wyrd has changed his, as he states he can get it. Only one non-alphanumeric character, too. Can't see any reason for that restriction. Accented characters should count as regular alphabetic ones.

This exactly. I don't want anybody pretending to be me. I made sure to put my new username in my current sig over at Beth, just so there's no confusion. Not to start on a negative note, but one thing that really sucks is we cannot put a space, hyphen, or underscore into our name. So now I'm ReneeGade instead of Renee Gade. I can live with that, I guess, but still.... Maybe the new forums will be okay. Maybe the search function will be better, oh my gosh, Beth's former search function was so awful!

This is the link in the Bethsoft general forums. https://account.bethesda.net/en/login Some have reported that the registration process fails in Firefox, and recommend using Chrome. The new forums themselves are not yet accessible. This is just the sign-up process for when they're opened. Existing users got a bit of advance warning.

For what it's worth, I registered via Firefox (yesterday) without issue. Leastwise I recall none.

And yet I am, and liveā€”like vapours tossed. I long for scenes where man hath never trod A place where woman never smiled or wept There to abide with my Creator, God, And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept, Untroubling and untroubled where I lie The grass belowā€”above the vaulted sky.ā€¯
