You can always check the front page but it can be a hassle well not really but you can always forget or be to busy and I have understood that when setting up this site so there is an alternative.
You can signup to a usergroup, well it's more of a mailing list! You can sign up to the news and whenever there is any new news on the particular title you have subscribed to you'll get the news delivered into your inbox.

Also about your account, I did delete lots of spam account and accounts which weren't verified.
You may have also signed up for an account when the site when down and I lost a bit of data. Just a few days but you may have registered around then.
I usually visit the Union once and every while, I was going there daily until I finally figured it wasn't all that active and then I kind of got bored and stopped but I'll make sure I come down there at least once a week!
and if there is any news I'll post it in the union forum as well as pm it to you. However just in case I forget to it'll be a good idea to sign up to the mailing list!
and about it being driver4 they said dpl wasn't driver 4 however the next driver could be something like Driver: unparallel lines! who knows.
