Title: Registering a new account
Post by Nigel on May 23rd, 2007 at 11:50pm
The last few weeks there has been a huge number of users registered from Russian and Ukranian email addresses.  These are not genuine users but an attempt to use the forum to post spam and other unacceptable messages.

For this reason I have disabled the ability for users to register themselves.  

If you would like to register a username on the forum then please email me at admin@tortosaforum.com with your desired username and, if it is available, I will email you back when it is set up.  This will normally be the same day.

Sorry for the inconvenience but it saves me deleting 3 or 4 users a day and the possibility of unacceptable material being posted on the forum.

Nigel

Thanks Nigel

It is nice to know that someone is keeping watch on our behalf, to ensure that we are not all bombarded with spam.
