So I have had an account for some time now (about 5+years, if not more). I am able to log in but when I click on the forums tab I get the following message:
Sorry, your registration has not yet been validated, you are not allowed to post any messages.

Like I have said I have had this account for a long time , but have not used it in awhile. How long till I can use it again? Due to this issue this is my only means in which I can contact someone who may help. I had to make this second account in order to see if I could get this issue fixed.
