Signup Problems

If you have a problem signing up to the forum, please use the contact us link at bottom of every page.

We use spam stopping service and it does at times prevent a genuine user from signing up.

If you contact us because of signup problems, please provide your Username, and Email address (especially if different from one on the contact us form).

An Admin will look into getting you signed up and what maybe preventing you from joining.

This may take a few days as the Admin have normal jobs and also like contesting so even weekends may mean a slow response.

One final point is it's not personal if you are prevented from joining, but just our spam prevention system which can make errors.
