Registering

Post by John »

Please note that you will need to register on the forum. You only need to fill out the basic details on the registration form, don't worry about anything that you don't recognise as there are also things there for advanced users.

When you send the form you will receive an e-mail from us, usually almost instantaneously. You will need to click on the link in the e-mail to activate your account, after which you will be fully registered.

Hello Everyone,

If you find that for some reason you forget your password or it does not appear to be working there is a 'Forgot My Password' link on the 'Login Screen'. If you put in your username and click this link it will automatically send you a temporary password to your registered email address. You may need to check the Spam Filters of your email to ensure it has not been sweeped up into a junk folder.

The passwords are encrypted into the forum database so as far as I know there is no way an admin can see them. If the above system does not work we can reset your password manually!

It's worth mentioning that, to deter spammers, at the moment accounts need Admin approval, so there may be a short or modest delay until your account becomes active. Please use your own name as a username if you possibly can, so we knoe who is asking to be registered.

Usernames like "megaspammer" will not be successful......
Best regards
