Validation, but I already validated my account

I'm not sure what's going on, but, last night I was signed out and a message popped up saying this:

"It seems that your account here has not yet been validated. To validate your account, you must click a link in an email that would have been sent to you when you registered. If you do not validate your account before Saturday, January 3rd 1970 at 8:00 PM, it will be disabled until you do."


The bold and underlined part is my emphasis. I was really confused, but after a few attempts I was able to log back in, and no issues with that have popped up.

Today I looked at the site wide shiny hunt, but. Noticed it says this:

"You aren't eligible to vote! To be able to vote, you must have registered before the vote opened, validate your account, and become a member."


But, I've been a member since (I believe) 2016. I'm not sure if this is a bug (because I haven't been active on GPX since 2017), or something else. I don't know if anyone can help me, or who I should contact. So any help in this matter is greatly appreciated!

Being a member is different from joining the website. According to the help section of the website on the Site-Wide Shiny Hunt tab:

QUOTE(Help page)
While the voting method has changed over time, the current method requires you to have registered prior to the start of the voting process, and have validated your account and become a full member, as well as purchased a Shine Recorder. To become a member, you must either make ten posts in forums that contribute to post count on the GTS+ forums, or you must unlock all the Newbie-level achievements - Hatcher, Breeder, Clicker, Trainer and Feeder - from the first achievement set.


If you haven't completed all of the Newbie-level achievements or posted 10 times in the forums, doing that may let you vote!

Oooh, okay! Thank you so much for that.
