Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Warning Points & Censorship
Rich Z.,
So when did you stop the Warning Points system? I don't see the points listed by anyone's user name any longer? Now how do you decide who will be banned or fined?
As to the auto censor program you have installed, how long has that been effective. I noticed that the other evening when someone called me a nasty name it got censored. Actually I had thought that person had typed in the red word 'censored' to be cute, but after seeing my own post have the word bull <font color=red>[**censored**]</font> censored this evening I was somewhat surprised. That was in the Hell Forum whcih you yourself called the trash can of this site and in essence indicated that anything goes therein.
Just wondering about these apparent changes.
Best regards,
Glenn B

The warning point system is still there. Isn't it visible to you?
But I am not particularly using the auto-banning feature, as I have found the suspension and fine method to be working better than I had expected. I am much more comfortable with the fact that someone suspended will get in such a tiff that they will not pay that minimal fine, and in effect, ban themselves from this site.
As for the auto-censoring, that has always been in effect. I have just changed the way it displays. There are several ways I can use this, so I have been playing around to see what I like best. Initially, censored words were replaced with each individual character replaced with a "*". Then I had the censored word replaced with "[bleep]". Then I did a graphic replacement where "[bleep]" got replaced with a smilie mooning the audience (figuring that the person posting the profanity would check to look at their handiwork, and the mooning was for them). And now, I just have it so that the word is replaced with "[**censored**]". So when viewing old messages, you may see various different manners in which the censoring has taken place.
And yes, those words I consider to be especially offensive to the majority of people are censored, site wide, even in the HELL forum.
Hope that explains it sufficiently

Ah! I bet I know what happened. When I created the new user group "Contributors", I forgot that I need to enable viewing of the warning points system for that user group. Now, hopefully I can remember how to fix that problem.......
Sorry.....
