FAQ 

I am not receiving confirmation/trenchmate invite emails:
The reason you may not be receiving the confirmation and trenchmate invite email is that AOL, COMCAST and some other servers have flagged battlecry.com e-mail as SPAM or junk mail. 

You may need to check your SPAM or junk mail folders to find your emails. If you can't find the emails it may be best to use another email provider like gmail.com or hotmail.com. 

We also encourage you to contact your server and ask them to remove battlecry.com from their SPAM list.
