Problems with Registering
There have been problems with new users attempting to register with the badge forum - one potential user being told that his communication was "spam". Does this indicate an underlying problem?

Hi Stanley, it means one of three things:
they share an IP address with a known forum spammer. or they have an email address used by a known spammer. or they are trying to register with a username that is in use with a known spammer. If you are trying to register a common username then the chance is high it has already been used in the past by a spammer. ie 'Tom' will be blocked but 'Tom_456' would be ok. Tip - try and add a little complexity to your username. I receive email everyday regarding this, this is the reply: hi xxxxxx, if you're having problems with the anti-spam, check your: username, ip, email, in this database and it will tell you which one is the problem: http://www.stopforumspam.com/search our registration is connected to their database. (most often caused by common usernames which are in use by spammers) kind regards Mike
