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.
General BS forumI guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much.
Been noticing the mods have been running in stealth mode. What's up with that? Been taking pointers from our government? HA HA HA
Seriously though, I know you can "hide", but when I see a post happen seconds after I post, then i post again, and seconds later another post...meanwhile, you don't even show up as viewing the thread....it's obvious you're there, but hidden.
So, what gives? Is there some sort of purpose behind it? Is it actually helping you catch people breaking the rules, or cutting back on the "negative" posts? Just don't get the "why" of it all. ??? Should we start calling y'alll "the feds"? LOL
I think most of you will know I could care less, since I'm the same whether you're there or not. But I'm a curious sort of person, so...
I'm a copycat....noticed that Dennis Hultman was never here, even when he was, so I started looking for how he did it. I've turned it off, periodically, but usually go back for one reason or another (such as seeing people stalking my profile)
HA HA HA "I fear, you are underestimating my sneakiness sir" Classic.
Stalkers Harald? Uh huh, riigghhtt. LOL When I notice someone has visited my profile a bit more often then what would seem normal, i just start popping into theirs so they know i see them. It usually stops after that. It is kinda creepy though when you see the same person has visited your profile every time you go there.
I guess it serves the same purpose as the security cameras you see in retail shops. You know they all can't be manned all the time, but you know that SOME of them might be. And there are instances where particular persons become of "special interest" and need a closer eye kept on them, so I presume the mods prefer doing it in such a way so as to not change a person's actions artificially by letting them know they are under closer scrutiny.
Hey, I guess if it works to weed out the...um...rif raf, then it makes sense.
