Default Can't I have 2 forums?

I already have a forum that I started a few years ago for Moms.

I am interested in creating a new forum for my sons' elementary school PTO.

When I tried to do so, it wouldn't let me because I tried to use my same email address.

Am I not able to have 2 forums using Forumer?

you can have as many forums as you want, you need to use a different email address to register each that's all...

I really hate that. I'm not one of those people who have a bunch of different email addresses. I'm an old lady that uses ONE email address.

You can set it up under a new email address and then change it in the board settings later so you only have one email to track.

make sure that if you do that and let the other email expire, you forward yourself the confirmation email you get when you set up the board which contains the unique admin security code, cause you might need to use it one day.

Thanks Wildcat. I'll be sure to do that.

By the way, how long does it take to receive the activation email so that I can start setting up my new forum?
