Account creation failed because I chose a user name that already existed.

When I changed the username, account creation failed because my email and phone were already taken. I guarantee they aren't, I think the system actually registered me the first time and I'm now totally locked out from using that email.

It's unusual to require or even ask for personal information joining name, email, and phone number to register, especially for a free site from an untrusted source. There's no way I'm putting my information in there.

I am deeply offended that you do not trust me, a stranger on the internet! I am hearing that many people feel that I am asking for too much data. I removed the phone number being necessary for registration. But I did still want to keep the email verification step, so that I can know that the people using my database are actual people and not bots/trolls, and that I could reach them with new features, and establish a professional relationship going forward. I hope that simply giving me your name and email, is not too much to ask for going forward. When I meet people at any event, it is often customary to exchange some information to stay in contact. Cheers!

Interesting! Whenever I am in a more active investing phase I feel like I don't have the data available I would like to have for making decisions. I am getting 'Database error: Unknown error' when trying to run a query. Maybe too much load at the moment. Regarding the sign-up form: You expect the input to follow the format '888 888 8888' including blanks. I would consider dropping the phone number altogether or at le…

Thank you for the feedback! I dropped the phone number as being necessary for registration. If you still have issues registering, please email me: alex@tesseractanalytics.ai

Earlier quoted context omitted.

There is a registration form that automatically creates you SuperSet account. https://tesseractanalytics.ai/financial-database-registratio... It also creates a Wordpress account for you if you wanted to blog about some discovery.

Is there a way to register without it also creating a WordPress account?

Yeah, I suppose I can remove that feature, I just thought if people wanted to add comments or blog on my tutorials. Just message me in Contact Us, I will remove you from WordPress.
