    Hello, I see that people become pink in color and cannot post or do anything if they change their email, I actually want to change my email because the email id in this account is inactive. Can I change it without going pink ?

    Thanks

    As far as I know, you only go pink if you haven't clicked the verification link in the email that will be sent to your new, active email address.

    Yes clookid is right, after you change your profile e-mail address you will be sent a new verification link to your new e-mail.

    No, I don't think so, Sometimes even after clicking the link we become pink, waiting for a mods response.

    Thanks but I would probably be stuck up as the email which is added here is dead email, if my dp account also gets hijacked, there is nothing we can do :(

    Or as the mod stated in the post I linked, you could end up in mderation hell and not be able to access your account for a long time, if at all. :eek:

    The decision is yours, to change or not to change, that is the question. If you have ever held another account at DP, you are headed to the duplicate account trap.
