This system works in 99% of cases. The usual cases where it fails are
where the person enters an extremely common name, or where they have
entered the bare minimum in order to satisfy the system's requirements
(ie. they've not provided their actual name, or a reasonable
pseudonym)

I've checked and we don't seem to have a pending registration for your
email address, so please send the address you tried to register with
to sysadmin at kde.org and we will look into why you had issues here.
