|
|
YOU MUST REGISTER WITH THE FORUM TO MAKE POSTINGS IN IT AND VIEW
ALL AREAS, OTHERWISE YOU MAY READ ONLY THE PUBLIC AREAS OF THE FORUM.
ACTIVATION
OF AN ACCOUNT MUST BE COMPLETED BY YOU, IN REPLY TO AN EMAIL. YOU MUST
PROVIDE A VALID EMAIL ADDRESS, IDEALLY USE YOUR COMPANY EMAIL DOMAIN. DO NOT CHOOSE A USERNAME FOR THE FORUM BASED ON YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS.
THE
FORUM IS SET FOR ADMINISTRATOR APPROVAL OF NEW IDS, A PROCESS WHICH MAY
TAKE UP TO TWO WEEKS TO COMPLETE, AT THE DISCRETION OF THE ADMIN
STAFF. ONLY WHEN APPROVED ARE YOU ARE SENT THE ACTIVATION EMAIL, WHICH
YOU MUST THEN REPLY TO WITHIN A WEEK.
WE ARE SORRY FOR ANY DELAYS AT OUR END, MADE NECESSARY BY PAST SPAM POSTING ATTACKS.
ONCE REGISTRATION IS COMPLETE YOU SHOULD LOGIN AND USE YOUR ACCOUNT ON A REGULAR BASIS.
As
you register you will choose your forum username. We advise that you
think carefully as to the format of that username, as your username and
email address will be used to assess whether the registration is
genuine or from a robot.
Forum usernames that are the same as
the email address name will be rejected. The domains "yahoo", "gmail"
and "mail.ru" are often used by robots to register something like forum
username "blogger" with an email address of "
This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
", and
thus those are not approved.
Please don't make
multiple registrations from the same IP address in the same week - such
IDs are liable to be removed, even before being activated.
Your
password must contain at least 8 characters and use both upper and
lower case letters as well as numbers, it should not include your
username. Choose something complex and unique as a password for your
account, to prevent account theft.
With the user account you are
about to register, you agree to never give your password out to any
other person. You also agree to NEVER use another person's account for
any reason.

Our
member list is checked regularly. Where accounts which have not been
active on-line and have email addresses or usernames that appear
suspicious, they are deleted without warning! Multiple registrations
from the same IP address are also liable to be purged, so that we
retain only recently used account(s). Previously used accounts that
have not made any postings in the forum, will be also be deleted if not
used for long periods - presently a year.
