Registrations On My Forum

For those of you that have registered recently, you are aware that I am screening very closely any new registrations as the only way I allow new registrations right now is for me to personally authorize them. I usually send out a note, if I don't recognize your e-mail address or name and ask you some questions. If you don't respond within a couple of days, I usually send you a note telling you that your request has been denied.

I am sure that for the most part people understand, or at least hopefully they do. There are some definite advantages in being registered on the forum and that is that if you have your computer remember you and you log in forever, everytime you come to the forum you will automatically be logged in and new messages will be highlighted in blue. You are also able to post your comments if there is some topic you would like to comment on.

I do have a disclaimer up in the News Box, but don't let it scare you as before I ban anybody from posting, I contact you and let you know why I may have issue with a post you may have put up. It is only when one might disagree and insist on posting something I have already discussed with them that I would go in and ban them from posting. This by the way has only happened twice in the five years the forum has been in existence.

I personally enjoy the forum, especially now that so many people are putting up posts and am so pleased when I hear that those from away use it to stay in touch with their hometown of Fairfax.
