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.

Huh... here's an imposter site being run by none other than Bob Sloan, lol:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/547664042046281/
Appears it's mostly for revenge/acting out against people he doesn't like though... all the "members" of the group were added by him, and he seems to want them to react strongly to being associated with something of his.

I filed a trademark infringement claim with Facebook. If the past is any guide concerning this, the page won't be up for long.

It would appear that this is very shortly no longer going to be the case... a USPTO search before the next time you open your mouth would be helpful.

Mr. Sloan's attempt at abusively using my trademark has been removed by Facebook.

I wonder if this would constitute any conditions of release due to his previous guest stays with the prison system... that is certainly an imminent and physical threat to your person, wouldn't you say?

That was pretty mild for Sloan.

It will be unfortunate for those people to lose their groups entirely if Facebook needs to get involved in a trademark issue concerning the ill conceived choice of name their group's creators decided on, ignoring ethics, common courtesy, and federal law concerning trademarks. That seems to be Facebook's policy: simply remove the group or page without the option of changing the group's name after the complaint has been filed with them. If some people wish to infringe on a trademark and refuse to recognize what a trademark is all about, and save their group by simply changing the name, then I guess that is their choice to make. I HAVE to make every effort to protect my trademark, otherwise I lose my rights to it.
So they can consider this notice here as fair warning. I'm sure many of those people are now aware of this issue, and I'm just glad to see that Facebook is not a safe harbor for those who want to flaunt the law.

Seems the "main" "BOI" group on FB is still using the moniker, even though it is now properly trademarked and registered with USPTO... can we look forward to that group being shut down sometime soon as well?
