Network Troubles

Just wanted to get a post out to address a couple of things that have come up now that a few folks have started wandering in to the Survivors Network site.

First off, if you try to register and never get the email confirmation, please check your spam filters and see if it’s getting filtered. If you still are unable to locate it, drop me a line with the username you want to use, and an email account to send the login information to.

Secondly, yes, you have to enter both a username, and a name when you register. (It’s a function of the software that I cannot change, and there are some logical reasons for it..) No, it doesn’t have to be your real name if you don’t want to use your real name. However, if you do, feel free to. Also, yes I need you to enter a real email address, but I am the only one who will see that. In the future, there may be other site admins who would have access to it as well, but it will never be public unless you choose to make it public.

Once you’ve gotten registered, feel free to join the different groups, or form a new one. That’s where the discussion forums come into play, within the groups. If you have any problems, feel free to join the Network Help group and post a message there. I do check it fairly often for new messages.

  • Forum change

    Because of some issues with spammers creating accounts just to post links to sites, I made a change in the forums that create a visual check before you can sign up for an account, and then require me to approve your account before you can post. I don’t think it’ll be too much of a…
