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.

Something strange going on
Various random words throughout the site appear highlighted in yellow. When one hovers over them there is an ad for blood pressure fixes and a 'click' box. This includes the word 'visited' from my top bar welcome area, but if one clicks to go to another Fauna area the yellow highlight disappears and it is no longer a link.

I'm not seeing this, either on Firefox with a fair amount of privacy protection on board, nor with a stock version of Safari that I just used to look at a dozen or so ads.
Sounds creepy, though.

I don't see it on Chrome with uBlock Origin either.

That new service, InfoLinks, I am using is putting in those orange underlined links in text. Appears they just pick words at random and usually point to something also completely random.
To show the difference between the above and an embedded link made by the author of the post -> Pop-up ads!

Yes, I know. But if InfoLinks is willing to pay me to display those linked text thingies that go nowhere, who am I to argue with them? It is up to them to point them to a paying advertiser. I am just providing the web pages for them to be displayed on.
In any event, they seem to be quite non-intrusive, comparatively, and I think I could even change the color of them somewhat. But I think making them stand out such that people will soon figure out what they are may be better than trying to hide them in any way.

Jose, next time do what I did and just post up out of the ordinary stuff and you will, like I did, get a kind helpful reply.

And just think! For a mere $25 per year, it can be made to go away.

And you get to be instrumental in helping to keep this site alive for another year.
