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.

Talk about rediculous. Just another example of sue happy America. The saddest part is that many people have settled with this #%@!, since it would probably cost more to defend themselves.

That's laughable! If I had a dollar for every time I thought somebody was going to sue me I'd be rich. Being sued is a fine line and it shouldn't be walked by those who don't need the trouble. I could file suit against my neighbor for driving past my news paper everyday if I wanted to. Would I win? Hell no but it would be a pain in his butt. For that matter his dog just bit me and that I would win over and I'm still not going to.
The point to this is, people in prison have sued the State for not having creamy peanut butter but of course lost. If you're trying to be a pain in the butt you can sue for anything.
The trouble comes in when you have somebody like me. My lawer is one of my better friends and does most of the things I need for free. I would personally be such a prick and counter sue that you would wish you never thought about me. Point is, look into the person you're sueing. If they're smart they'll have their assets protected and not only will those not be touchable but they'll have a friend or family member that's a lawer and it won't even hurt their pocket book.
