We had a recent new member that could not understand why he could not view attachments. He registered and didn't think he had to do anything else. He posted in chat, and from there I saw he was not activated yet. Several days later I put a message in chat for new members highlighted in red, and a recently registered member responded, and he got activated as well.
I thought it was a good idea to create a sticky so new members are aware there is a second step to the process, and hopefully nobody will slip through the cracks.
