A notice regarding the need to register

[PMP Webmaster]

To all our readers,

I'm very sorry to have to do this, but as of this evening, the PMP board will only allow posts by registered members. Over the last few days I've had to clean out close to a hundred junk spam postings, and things show no sign of getting any better.

To all of you who are regular guest posters, please register and keep up the great content. I'm sorry it's come to this, and that a few jackasses out there are spoiling it for you, but it'll mean that we won't have to swim through such a sewer of spam filth to get to the meaningful content.

To those out there who run spam-posting services, please drop dead.

To all our regularly contributing members, please keep it coming.

And to all those who are visiting the board for the first time and wish to post, please take the time to register and say hello. If you later forget your registration and want to make a new name, I can always go in and delete your old account.

Once again, I'm sorry it's come to this, and perhaps we'll find a way around it eventually. I thank you for your patience and understanding.

I've recently realized that I had to approve a number of members who had signed up for new accounts, but who hadn't been given permission! It totally slipped me that for some reason the board was set so that I had to approve new members, even when they set up their accounts.

So please, feel free to scold me, but also feel free to post away!

Consider yourself scolded, sir! LOL. ;D

Thank you, thank you!

As of right now, I have set the board so that members don't require approval before posting. At least that way, people can just sign up and post immediately instead of waiting for me. Hopefully that will take some of the sting out of losing the ability to guest-post.
