Being a rebel (who obeys no-one) just to *be* a rebel will only annoy others and will eventually get you fired. |

wow...the beginning of this thread is OLD and was jsut sort of...suddenly revived.Yeah, it was revived a few times this year, plus it is stickied, so I didn't feel bad about resurrecting it. Well, I was a bit hesitant, still. ;p I typically try to avoid thread resurrection like the plague. :) *Goes quiet again to leave the poor thread in peace*
15. Gravedigging Old Topics: When posting to a topic, please be sure to check the date of the topic's creation, as well as the date of the very last post in that thread, as many topics have been dead for months and/or years.
If it has been 6 months or longer since the last post was written in a thread, then please start a new thread on the subject you wish to discuss and then also contact the Mods/Staff by PM so we can close the older outdated topic. Older topics (Depending on date & subject) should probably not be posted in for the following example reasons:
1. Original poster (or other members from that thread) may be gone and not active on forums anymore to read their own thread/posts and offer advice, or they have already gotten all the info. and advice they were asking for.
2. Information/advice may be outdated, links broken, pics are gone, etc.
Some exceptions to this rule may be, but are not limited to, the following:
1. Various pinned Important Topics in forums that members may still post to.
Just curious, do you guys still require admin activation of all accounts?
That must help a /lot/! :oQuoteJust curious, do you guys still require admin activation of all accounts?
Yes, All new member registrations for the forums are "manually" checked by the Admins before any new members are approved. It's a bit of a time consuming process, but it's better to do it that way than to let in a spammer or something worse. ;)
And thanks to whatever "wizardry" WS implemented long ago, We are not flooded with spambot accounts. :)

You know, Kobuk, I gotta say, you're likely the most stand-up admin I've seen on any part of the 'Net
