It's no glitch, willing2. We are making sure that every Mingle2 member has a working email address. We need this information for the occasions when we have to keep members updated on policies and changes. It also make it tougher on spammers/scammers.

In any case, to help us eliminate possible email verification problems for other members, please let us know if you were using our full site or our mobile site when you tried it. If there is a link in the email that you received, have you tried clicking that link (instead of pasting the code)?
