Reproduce:

Your board is set to "COPPA Compliance" > "Enabled.
A user registers with birth year of less than 13 age. The user goes under awaiting COPPA validation.

Now, go to ACP > Users & Groups > Users and click on the newly registered user's name, you will get a flash message with an activation link:

Now click on activate account link, the user is not activated:

Coz, during activation, MyBB checks 'my_post_key' and that is not included in the "Account Activation" link generated through language variable "warning_coppa_user".

Can anyone confirm this so that I can push it?

yes, I can confirm it ..

Thanks @.m. Pushing now ...
