Upon registering you will receive an email to the email address you provided in the registration form. Following the link in said email will lead you back to the forum, only now your account will be activated and you will have the ability to post and participate in forum activities.
But wait! Your private-message functions aren't working! You can't receive them, send them, or anything! You've checked all the settings inthe user control-panel but nothing works!
Good-gravy, Batman! What do we do!?
Calm down, lil fella'. We've got things under control.
Due to a
spamming incident (Not to be confused with
The Spamming Incident) the user privaliges were re-adjusted.
In summary, when you first register, you're placed in the "possible spammer" usergroup. In order to prevent a potential PM spamtastrophe, you must post three time before you are automatically switched to the "members" usergroup. Once in the "members" usergroup, you are permitted to send PMs.
Once your Private-Message functions have been activated you will be able to Privately message any member who has the function activated.
This function can be extremely handy if you want to discuss things with another user which you do not wish to be broadcasted to the entire forum, or to contact a mod for whatever reason, again, not to be broadcasted to the entire forum.
No Harassment: I will not tolerate harassment of others no matter what you may think. If someone asks you to stop contacting them over private messenger, then you must abide by this request, or this is private harassment.
Be wary that the administrators of this forum can view any and all pms. If you are found of Pm harrassment, action will be taken.
