F*** you, natural motion - Ms. Mudpie - 01-29-2011
So earlier today I decided to re-install endorphin (yes, it is in lower-case), namely because I remember it being so much fun, and it's really nerdy. I also just love ragdoll physics.
So I re-downloaded it and when I started it up, I was told that I have to register it. Strange, since I got the free version, but anyway, I decided to comply. I clicked on the "Register now" button and it lead me to a page on the forums telling me to find my product code (I needed a product code to register my copy of endorphin) and how to do it - and it said I had to log in. Problem was, I thought I wouldn't have needed a forum account to use this product, but again, I decided to comply and make an account - only to find my usual address had apparently already been taken. Great.
So after much hassle I manage to get my password e-mailed to me. My new password, which is more like a cryptic message than a password. So I copy it and paste it, and I find myself in a mysterious account I must have made about four years ago.
The instructions then told me to go to my User CP where I'd be given a survey to do and then there would be my product code, so I got to my User CP, and the blasted code was nowhere to be found. Not even bothering, I just made another account, and I was given about 160 questions about my company, number of animators in my company, what industry my company works in, etc etc. Thankfully, I was given the choice to enter N/A in all the text boxes. Annoyingly, I had to use another e-mail address since my usual one was already in use. So to hotmail.co.uk I go, and I tried to log into my alt-account - except I couldn't, since I couldn't remember the password, meaning I had to have another e-mail sent to my usual address.
Finally, I managed to log into my hotmail account and I found the instructions on how to activate my forum account. So I managed to activate my forum account, and before long I was granted - finally - the product code I'd been working for. I copied that in, typed in my (alt) e-mail address and the product registered with ease.
So in the end, I managed to register the product - but god damnit, Natural Motion. Why make activating your products so infuriatingly tedious?

It happens all the time, it's easily solved by remembering your passwords.
Not much use when you get hacked tho :3
