E-Mail Verification?

So, every time I log in now, I get a screen telling me to verify my e-mail, despite this being something I did years ago.

When I click Send Verification E-Mail, none arrive.

Are yo guys ok?

Same for me. Just started today. Happens every time I log in and no emails arrive once "Send" is pushed.

Likewise... wt heck?

Same here, I clicked on the Send button and no email. Checked my Spam folder and everything. Logged out and back in 3 times and got it again, clicked Send, still no email. It's really annoying. I'm on SMS authentication so idky it's doing that. Sounds like a bug to me.

Yep, just got it too. Wanted to come here and see if others were getting it, as I validated this address quite some time ago.

Mark me and the husband and all of our accounts having the same issue.

For those who no longer have access to the email address they're logging in with why haven't you changed your email with anet? (just curious)

So it's not just me that's experiencing this.

I'm getting the same thing starting today. I thought it was a fluke of some sort when I logged in for Daily reset though I did hit send before I closed the client. Never got anything in my e-mail's inbox. Logged in a second time, got the same prompt, hit send again, and decided to do Daily's while I waited for something to show up in my e-mail's inbox. Still got nothing.

I haven't changed my e-mail and I haven't changed my password and I haven't messed with any security settings so I wonder what's going on. It doesn't prevent me from playing the game, mind you, but it's still a bit concerning. Hopefully Anet will get back with us on what's going on and let us know if the issue is benign or something more serious.

Same here and it started today as well.Checked my mail box but no mails from Anet.However the game logged in just fine after pressing "SEND ME", so it's not much of an issue, much like an annoyance.

Alright, had me worried. Thanks for letting me know this might be a bigger issue.

Got the same issue here, with the email address apparently not being validated.

Same exact issue for me.

But, a few hours ago they posted on Twitter they were doing some kind of maintenance that might affect connectivity. https://twitter.com/GuildWars2/status/1113917809589981184

I got the same error message about email verification, what is going? Did something happen?

The game logged in just fine after i pressed "Send Me" button, I checked my mail box to be sure and there are no mails from Arena net.This kinda scared me and it's worrying me a bit. Has something or someone hacked into something? Or has something gone wrong on your end.

OK. On the game launcher with the email verification thing, I clicked "cancel" next to the send button and was able to launch the game and log in just fine.

Edit: Seems fine on my end, other than the confusing message and not receiving any emails when clicking the send button. Clicking cancel for the verification thing makes the message go away and the Play button appears, allowing me to log into the game just fine.

I've been seeing this as well. I'm guessing it's some kind of a bug?

I'm getting this too. It's not a connectivity issue. I can connect fine whether I select send or cancel but I get no email when I hit send. I verified my email a long time ago. I also haven't received any emails from Anet since November. Wasn't there supposed to be an email from them about getting a purple mask for doing something related to account security or something?

I'm also getting this; 'Please validate your email address'. Press send (several times now) but still no email. I've tested it with other accounts and all seems fine. I verified my account a very long time ago...several years. Please fix.

Why don't ANet allow users to change their email from within account management?

So I hit the "send" button by mistake. I haven't just done something stupid like let hackers into my damn account have I? Is it just a bug on Arenanets end?

Seems like it's a bug on Anet's end. I'm hoping they'll have an update on what's going on tomorrow but if not, at the very least I'm gonna update my password just to be safe.

Oooh, I wonder if that's what's causing the problem I am having with adventures...been trying to do beetle time trials and getting notices that the game can't connect with the server when running in Gendarren Fields. No disconnect notice in Mt Maelstrom or Diessa Plateau, but no chests awarded at the end.

Anyway, glad to know we are all having the e-mail issue together.

Yeap i'm getting it as well, kinda annoying really :|

Anet bug, big surprise

Same bug.2 factor authentication enabled account asked to verify e mail.I simply ignore and choose the "cancel" option.Can someone please inform us if we do indeed have to re verify our e mails or just wait for the situation to be sorted out?

Same issue here. I press "send" but no email arrives.

came here to check and double-check if i'm not the only one who got this sparkle tiny whiny shiny bug that pops up (thought my account been blocked or something xD) every time i login into client (I have Autologin shortcut parameter so i'm good)
