A recent influx of over 200 spam accounts has led me to update the process for registering on the Copperstone Community forum. I’ve added spam checks on registration and require new accounts to email admin@copperstonecommunity.org to get approved for posting and reading the forum.
The full process, which you can also see after registering on the forum, is below:
NOTE: It may take several hours from when you register an account to when you get the email with details. This is controlled by the server host, not me. You may also have to wait several hours if you update/change your password.
If you have registered and set your account password, you will only be able to see this category and forum. Once your account has been approved, you will be added to a group that will allow you to post in all threads and start new topics.
To have your account approved, you must send an email–using the same email address you registered with–to admin@copperstonecommunity.org and state the following:
- Subject line of email: Account approval request
- Your account name for this forum
- Your actual/real name
- Your unit or strata lot number
- If you are an owner or tenant (renter)
Once your account has been approved, you can view all forums, create new topics and reply to posts.
I understand that you may be reluctant to give this information to an unfamiliar site. I can promise that your information will not be shared with anyone and is only to help identify you as a legitimate user on this forum. It will never be sold to third parties or used for any other purpose except to identify you for this forum.
If you do not send the above information, your account will remain as Guest. Guest accounts will occasionally be purged, as many of them are spam accounts.
