How to register for this site

First, click on the Register link, which can be found above, in the menu bar below the forum banner.

The first page is a simple agreement that declares your age and that you agree to be polite and post appropriate messages. Abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-oriented or other generally offensive messages will be removed by a forum moderator and posting rights may be revoked.

On the agreement page, click accept.

The registration form has many fields, but the required fields have an * next to them. They are Username, e-mail address, password, and confirm password. The rest of the information is optional.

IMPORTANT - USERNAME FORMAT -
We will only accept one type of username. It will need to be your firstname.lastname. So for example if your name is Joe Smith, your username should be Joe.Smith. You can use Joe instead of Joseph or Bill instead of William, etc. The "dot" character separates your first and last name. It is NOT a dash, underscore, or any other special character. It is a "dot," period.

Here are examples of good usernames:
Bill.Pittenger
Shannon.Bingert
Adma.Ross
John.Smith

Here are examples of unacceptable usernames:
billpittenger
bpittenger
shnin6
billp99
