User needs an email address verification before the user can login.

[geeks2you]

I recently applied to become an editor under the username of 'geeks2you'. I've been told that responses are usually within 24-72 hours on your application, so I decided to try to log in to see if I could find out more. Turns out, I may have forgotten to verify my email address. When I went to log in, I received the "User needs an email address verification before the user can login" message. I was able to reset my password, but I am still getting that error message when trying to log in. I believe I had verified the email, but it is very possible that I missed it. Also, if I could find out the status of my application, that would be greatly appreciated.

You aren't an editor so it's not surprising that you can't log in as one.

Not by an authoritative source I shouldn't think. Some newapps are processed within hours, some take months.

Also, if I could find out the status of my application, that would be greatly appreciated.
