I have noticed that we have many guests here that do not register. I see them trying to reply to threads or send PMs quite often. Unfortunately, unregistered guests cannot post or send PMs.

However, it only takes a moment to register and your emails will not be shared with anyone or any group. They are kept private and only forum administrators ever see them..unless you want them to be public. We do not collect the emails or make lists.

We would certainly like your input on the forums, especially those of you who try to post on the role play threads.

Please register and join us! All posts are moderated immediately after registration so it might take up to 24 hours for your post to show. But after a very short time, you will be approved as long as you are not advertising.

I think this might be due to a problem with the forum. I tried to sign up months ago, and i never got an email to authorise my account. I gave up trying since there was nobody to contact (emails wernt working). I tried again today with an email address I hardly use, and it worked. I think there might be something that needs fixing though.

Actually, that is not a problem with the forums. Some ISPs and/or email servers are set so that a message like ours, which is auto-generated, goes directly to the spam box. I didn't realize this until one day I went into my webmail for my ISP mailbox and found all this email I thought I had never received.

There really isn't much we can do about this on our end, I am afraid.

The vast majority of unregistered guests are auto-bots that log on to phish for emails and to try to put advertisements on our forum. Since they are not 'real people', they never validate the email that is sent to them.
