Hi. I haven’t visited here in quite some time. I noticed there is a new forum arriving shortly in which I registered. It appears you need to be approved by some type of authorisation before participating. My question is how long is the grace period before I receive another email? I have a lot of patience however, I am notorious of registering to a forum and forget to check back within a certain time period to activate the account. |

Hi all. Is this going to be the permanent behaviour for new user registrations for the new forum? If so, how do you anticipate the system working for new users who want to sign up and post an urgent question "right now" but must wait, and in waiting may well leave the forum and not return? Another forum that I frequent had this discussion (because it avoids lots of spammers signing up and abusing the forums) but decided against the system that PSW seem to have decided on because of the reason I have suggested above. Just for interest's sake Cheers David |

it takes till a moderator or administrator checks for registrations awaiting authorization. I try to check a couple of times a day. Over the weekend I was locked out due to a broken skin that I was the only one using. Mac |
