In our on-going attempts to reduce spam logins and fake users, we have instituted email verification for all new registrations.

This should have no impact on existing members.

New members will now have to provide a valid email address (one that passes the spam validation checks from the Stop Forum Spam database). If your email fails this validation, please take it up with the above website. They have tools where you can appeal your classification.

Note that prior registrations without a valid email address will continue as-is. However, as in the past, you won't be able to recover your password if you don't have a valid email address registered and we won't assist you in changing the email address without sufficient proof that you are indeed the original owner of the forum user ID.
