New User registrations?

Post by Claypole »

I've been asked to post as a few people on VZI have mentioned not being able to register on the forum.

hi, have replied.

for some reason its only vzi people who have a problem on here.

anyway - we get 20-30 sign up attempts per day.

i check all of them - although randon usernames - you know the sort of thing that reads like it was typed in russian by a phillipino on acid are deleted on sight.

border line ones - ok names but strange emails that don't come up as forum spam = an email to clarify certain/alternative details.

if a name and email address come up as in use on other recognizable forums comes up it will usually get approved.

:hi: I fully empathize with Sean on this, what a complete waste of time spent on nerds. :stupid: May I suggest an automatic email response along the lines of " Go forth and multiply with yourself " might help. :bye:
