I have been trying to set up an account with this site and no matter what I try, I keep getting an “error has occurred” message. Can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong?

Do you have cookies enabled for that site, and possibly flash as well. I have both turned off, and the same happened to me (though to be honest I used a fake email as well, as I really am not interested in registering and didn’t want to use a real one just in case it worked).

The registration form does not work for me either, their code word thing you have to type in is the same every time too. The site seems really walled-off, I can’t find an e-mail address anywhere.

I’d send e-mail to [webmaster@darkervision.com](mailto:webmaster@darkervision.com) and tell them you keep getting the “error has occurred” message when you try to register. You can even detail what you are typing into each blank and that the code word is the same every time.
