adamhanlon 0 Posted April 8, 2022 Dear Community, I have decided that with immediate effect, all memberships will have to be admin approved. Email addresses still need to be verified and a post made in the Introductions forum as is currently the case. We have a small number of unscrupulous individuals trying to defraud community members in the Classifieds, and this is to try and control their access. I plan for this to be a short term change...but will keep you all in the loop! Thank you Adam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimG 62 Posted April 8, 2022 Good call, Adam - the number of potential scammers seems to have shot up recently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Ives 0 Posted November 17, 2022 Hi Adam Thanks for the AD maybe a good idea to send out a welcome mail with t C's when you approve new members as ive tried to work out why i couldn't post anything had to do a search to see i needed to post an introduction and posts three times to use classifieds Thanks paul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nellietee 0 Posted January 16 Hi all, I can’t seem to be able to send private messages? New member with a handful of posts, not sure if I’ve met the required number of posts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimG 62 Posted January 16 Strange, you shouldn’t have a problem. I’ll send you one and let’s see what happens Hmmm, yes, there does seem to be a problem. I’ll investigate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eyematey 5 Posted January 19 (edited) Hi Adam and Tim I have a very good dive buddy who has recently tried to join WP but yet to be "approved". Does this normally take a long time? He is listed as 'foot doc' in membership and I even sent him a message to see if he was active. He can't log-in and his screen says "waiting for approval". Just checking to see if there is a problem for him. Thanks, Steve Edited January 19 by Eyematey deleting personal info Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimG 62 Posted January 19 Hey Steve. No, it shouldn’t take long. Let me take a look. “foot doc” is the user name? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
