Information Why are you placed in approval queue when you sign up & what to do if you are rejected. (1 Viewer)

[Tiffany]

I've received a couple of emails asking why we are rejecting sign ups, we use a third party service to check if your ip address is suspicious to prevent spammers, the database is shared by other forums worldwide to check if you were banned by other forums for spam & base our decision on that to approve or deny if you were place in the approval queue, this only happens to around 5% of signups. For users with clean ip address, signing up is instant.

Of course we know that some ISP do not provide static ip addresses, so if you find yourself with a non clean ip address & find yourself constantly denied here or other blogs/forum in the future, request your ip to be removed here. - Stop Forum Spam
