More signup stuff on this forum - sorry guys

Post by AmBraCol »

Between the May and the end of August a huge number of spammers found this site and set up a bunch of usernames with links to porn and other objectionable sites. Now, what you do on your own time and what not is your problem, but we WILL NOT tolerate the use of this forum for the promotion of web content contrary the principles of those who founded Leverguns and The Frontier Sixshooter Community. This is a traditional family oriented website. There's plenty of "alternate lifestyle" and "adult" ("adult" in this context is a code name for "never grew past junior high mentality") websites out there for folks who see things differently from us. We don't expect to link from there to here nor will we allow links from here to there.

So, since the spammers are finding ways around the filters we've set up we've had to ratchet up security another notch. Folks who sign up as of 9:00 a.m., September 7, 2007 will have to be confirmed by the Webservant. This will take a bit of time, depending on his regular work load on things other than this, our hobby. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience and hope you understand that it's due to the nefarious bottom feeders of the 'net that we've had to take this measure and in no way reflects on the legitimate denizens of the Leverguns Forum.

Also, if for some reason you can't see the image that is required for signup purposes, just drop an e-mail note to the Webservant with your requested username and he'll get you set up ASAP.

Thank you for your comprehension and patience. We apologize for any inconvenience and frustration these necessary measures may cause.

The webservant can be contacted via the e-mail below.
