From now on, all new users will be approved by Administration before their profile is activated. This means that when someone makes a new account, it won't be useable until myself, Gnomes, or Lakers27 has approved it. It used to work that an email verification was sent to people applying, but we've found that membership to our forum has been abused through proxies 3 times. So if someone makes a new account here, and it doesn't get accepted quick, please bug me to accept them, that's the only way they'll be able to access the forums from now on.
