Is there a chance for a do-over if I forgot to include an email in my application? I spent like 45 minutes answering the questions with an elevated heart rate and submitted only to start freaking out that I possibly forgot to type my email address in. I kinda got tunnel vision, the questions are anxiety inducing in a way I wasn’t really expecting when I started.

I did some looking and it seems like the account gets created whether or not you were approved, but how do you know if you were denied if there’s no email? Is lack of email and automatic disqualification/ban from participating?

    For what it’s worth, I didn’t enter an email when I made my account on Beehaw and I didn’t have any issue with getting approved.

    Apparently there’s a known bug where if your username is already in the instance the page will just hang and the admins will be none the wiser that you tried to sign up at all, so it may be worth trying again with a different username. Source here: https://beehaw.org/post/562922

      Ok, thank you. I wasn’t worried about it not being approved yet, I just assumed that having an email might have been a requirement because they’re being relatively strict about signups and not having an email address is often a quick filter for keeping out undesireables.
