    Brief Description: This isn't a bug on the server, but rather on the forums. Whenever you try to confirm the creation of an account, the link sent to your email address doesn't work.

    Instructions:
    1. Create Account
    2. Go to your email provider
    3. Open the ECC email and click the account confirmation link.

    How many times did you recreate this bug?:
    5/5
    Result:
    The link would lead to a location that stated that the location could not be found

    Expected Result:
    Account validation

    Evidence:
    None, didn't bother

    Notes:
    I discovered that the source of the problem was that the link that was sent via email contained an extra slash ("/"). Here's part of the link sent via email:
    http://ecocitycraft.com/forum//account-confirmation... (This is only the first part of the link, I didn't post the entire thing for account security reasons). As you can see there are two slashes between "forum" and "account-confirmation", however the link will only work if one of them is removed.
