READ ME - NEW MEMBER APPLICATIONS

Post by jonclancy »

Hi Everyone,

In a bid to stem the flow of spam accounts trying to register here, from now on will prospective new members please email the Admin with a brief outline of why they wish to join.

admin (at) westfield-eleven (dot) org OR USE THE ‘ CONTACT US’BUTTON ON THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE. Visible when the registration window is open.

All membership applications are manually processed and approved. This may take a little while, so please bear with us. If you have a spammy looking email address, and manager to register, your newly listed account will be deleted. Apologies if that is a genuine application. Please try again and make sure you drop Admin an email.

Thank you.

PS Forum Rules are here:

Update:

It seems that opening registration access via the Register button simply allows a flood of scam and spam accounts to register. These then need to be deleted manually. With the button selected OFF, this doesn’t happen.

New policy: Register button will remain OFF. If you would like to join this excellent little community, please DROP THE ADMIN AN EMAIL with a brief outline of why you wish to join.

Thanks!
