    Yeah, I signed up like 2 months ago or so...I'm pretty sure I hadn't been approved yet.

    I signed up once. After waiting a few weeks to gain approval, I gave up and signed up again with a different username. It was approved in a few days. A few weeks later, the first account was finally approved.

    There is no reason why they did it like that that I can think of, other than they are a bit disorganized.

    I heard that was the site of Nintega's origin on the web.

    Years later, he's still the same as when he got banned there.

    Just whatever you do, don't sign up and start buying/selling stuff right away. Chat with the peeps in the chat room for a while. Get to know people. Most people there don't trust the new guys so they have to build your trust with you.

    Cheap trades are always a good start.

    Going on there looking for Magical Chase is not.

    its not disorganized, its just the site admin isn't on too often, and hes the one that approves users.

    As a proud member of the elite social circle that is PCenginefx.com, I hope they keep the requirements high. Currently you need to be as good in bed as Bonk to be approved. Best of luck to you!

    The only thing I don't like about their forum is that whenever they ban members, apparently they migrate over here and act like dipshits.

    aka. disorganization (not in appearance, but in keeping up with things) due to the admin being too busy to check applications. Just a fact (well, looks like it to me anyway!). I like the site, to be honest.

    What is PCEngineFX about anyway? Sitting on my secret stash of broken GTs and PC-FX GAs I have no need for trading sites! (Well, in all honesty my other trading sites already eat up 110% of my available disposable.)

    Bumping this for a similar issue. I have tried signing up 3 times: July of 2010, January of 2011, and now, this month, on the 24th.

    I have never been approved for any of these attempts.

    pcenginefx guys: Lemme in, please! I'm a nice guy, I promise!


    EDIT: Some anonymous person spread the word overnight and I'm in. Thank you, masked stranger!
